- Shall We Kiss (France) – February 14
Valentine’s Day brings “Shall We Kiss,” a story within a story, quite literally. Two strangers make a connection, but which abruptly ends when the man, Gabriel (Michaël Cohen) offers Emilie (Julie Gayet) “a kiss without consequences.” Emilie declines by telling the story of two friends whose lives are brought into chaos after sharing a kiss. It is a light and fanciful look into the consequences of attraction.
- She Is Like Spring (South Africa) – February 15
