THE RED BALLOON + WHITE MANE
Le ballon rouge + Crin Blanc

Beautifully restored, here is a special opportunity to revisit one of the landmarks of French cinema on the big screen.

Paris, 1950's. A little boy discovers a red balloon, attached to a lamppost and releases it. To everybody's surprise, the magic balloon keeps following the little boy. This classic film (winner of the 1956 Cannes Palme d'Or) allows imagination to take flight! With no dialogue, music plays a key role in setting the mood, leading us to a magical finale across the Paris rooftops.

Screens with WHITE MANE:
Crin Blanc is a proud stallion who lives with a herd of wild horses in the south of France. The only human he will allow close to him to tame him is a young fisher boy. As their friendship grows, they set off to find their freedom.
