Nouvelle Vague
Nouvelle Vague is Academy Award-nominated director Richard Linklater’s love letter to the spellbinding magic of French cinema, reimagining the making of Jean-Luc Godard’s revolutionary Breathless, which ultimately cemented Godard as a pioneer of the French New Wave. Capturing the youthful dynamism and creative chaos at the heart of one of the world’s most beloved and influential movies, Nouvelle Vague transports us to the streets of 1959 Paris for an ode to the power of cinema to transform our lives. A Netflix release.
Actor Zoey Deutch will be presented with the Breakthrough Performance Award. A Q&A with Deutch immediately follows the screening.
