Screening of 'L'Aventure Revue' - Cannes Festival 2026

Discover L'Aventure Revue, the award-winning film at the 2026 Cannes Festival, showing from Wednesday, July 22, 2026 at l'Atalante!

Directed by Valeska Grisebach, this quiet yet gripping crime drama immerses the viewer in the heart of a criminal society in Bulgaria. The story follows Veska, a sixty-year-old archaeologist who challenges the norms of a world dominated by men shaped by decades of sexism and misogyny. Between suspense and social commentary, the film explores with precision the tensions of a border zone where the law is written by local mobsters.

Brought to life by a non-professional actress of rare intensity, L'Aventure Revue embodies a new wave of contemporary German cinema, alongside other standout works like Home Stories (also featured at l'Atalante). A must-see film for its bold storytelling and deep humanity.

A movie that observes, questions, and captivates—don’t miss it if you love socially engaged cinema and stories where female characters shatter stereotypes.
