Ballarat Film Society Screening of Aurore

  • Ballarat Mechanics Institute 117 Sturt Street Ballarat Central, VIC, 3350 Australia (map)

The Ballarat Film Society screens an eclectic program of films on the big screen.
Feb 14, 7.00pm, Film: Aurore

France, 2017, 89 min. Dir: Blandine Lenoir
French Feel Good

This year we kick off with a portrait of womanhood in modern day France. Fifty-year-old Aurore (Agnes Jaoui) separates from her husband at the same time as she loses her job, learns she is to become a grandmother, and happens to meet a past love – all whilst coping with menopausal inconveniences. The film was also released with the English title I Got life!?.

Director Blandine Lenoir is well known for films portraying the optimism, resilience and beauty of older women with humour and insight.

Jason de Rosso describes the film as a gem, adding “The way Lenoir depicts intimate relationships in the fim is achingly real”.

Enjoy the start of the BFS year with this French comedy. Palace Films.
