Film Lovers International Cinema Society (FLICS) present "Le Havre" on Friday January 11, 2013 at 7:30pm.
In this warmhearted portrait of this French port city, fate throws a young African refugee, Idrissa, into the path of Marcel Marx, a well-spoken bohemian who works as a shoe shiner. With innate optimism and the unwavering support of his community, Marcel stands up to officials doggedly pursuing the boy for deportation. A political fairy tale that exists somewhere between the reality of contemporary France and the classic cinema of Jean-Pierre Melville and Marcel Carné, “Le Havre” is a charming, deadpan delight. In French with English subtitles. Dir: Aki Kaurismäki, 2011, France, 93 min, Not Rated.
