Music halls, romance, and danger. This is Paris, 1936.

Drama

A star is born in a time of both celebration and instability in this historical drama with music from director Christophe Barratier. In the spring of 1936, Paris is in a state of uncertainty; while the rise of the Third Reich in Germany worries many, a leftist union-oriented candidate, Léon Blum, has been voted into power, and organized labor is feeling its new power by standing up to management.

VIBE

A vibrant, bittersweet ode to Parisian life on the cusp of change. It captures the spirit of community and the power of dreams amidst societal shifts, all set to a charming, evocative score.
