“A Monster Calls” is a film adaptation of Patrick Ness’s bestselling novel of the same title. It tells the story of a boy who, seeking help for his beloved mother, enters a world whose existence he could never have imagined. Few adults would have as much courage as 10-year-old Connor. Every day, the boy has to defend himself against a group of older boys who torment him at school. The real drama, however, unfolds at home—the mother raising him alone is losing her battle with illness, while the doctors are powerless. In this situation, Connor gains an extraordinary ally: a dark creature from his dreams that, through remarkable magical tales, draws Connor into a world where answers to the most difficult questions can be found.
“The Miser” French comedian DANY BOON has already played a hypochondriac, a post office worker in the far north and a customs officer who lets nobody off the hook. Now he will play a man whose best friend is a snake in his pocket. He showers with a stopwatch. He washes only in cold water. He watches television through binoculars aimed at his neighbour’s window. At home, he uses only the light from street neon signs. A talented violinist, Francois Gautier has been pathologically stingy since childhood. He has no friends, because buying someone a drink would give him a heart attack. He never entered into a relationship, because even buying wilted flowers would seem like financial madness to him. One day, Francois’s world is turned upside down. A young and beautiful cellist joins the orchestra, and his musical talent enchants her. To make matters worse, 16-year-old Laura appears out of nowhere, convinced that she is his daughter. The poor miser suddenly feels loved by two women who do not know that his heart is already occupied by… a bank deposit. The most beautiful story about love… of money.
