Step into the romance and rivalry of 19th-century France with an movie screening filled with duels, daring, and elegance — the perfect way to greet November in style. 🍂🗡️
Une affaire d’honneur (2023), by Vincent Perez, takes us into 19th-century France, where duels are as much about pride as passion.
Paris, 1887: duels may be outlawed, but honour still rules. Clément Lacaze, a passionate fencing master, is drawn into a web of rivalries when his nephew and a bold feminist duelist, Marie-Rose Astié de Valsayre, both face challenges that could turn deadly. A stylish and stirring cape et d’épée drama about courage, pride, and the price of reputation.
This screening is a wonderful opportunity to (re)connect with classmates and fellow Alliance Française members in a warm and convivial atmosphere as the Fall Session #2 unfolds.
