“There's Something Wild About Iris Blond”

Comedy

Romeo, a lovelorn Roman musician in his 40s with 20 years since his only hit, consults a fortuneteller who predicts he'll find love and money with a foreign singer named for a flower. In Brussels he meets Marguerite, an older chanteuse who interprets Jacques Brel and loves her yappy dog.

VIBE

A gentle, character-driven comedy about missed connections and the quiet melancholy of middle age. It feels like a European art film, with a focus on mood and understated performances. Perfect for a thoughtful, introspective viewing.
