In the organizer's words:

CAN 2010, Feature film, 100 min, FSK 12

Director: Xavier Dolan - OmU (Canadian French with German subtitles)

With: Xavier Dolan, Monia Chokri, Niels Schneider, Anne Dorval

Francis and Marie are best friends. Until they meet the cool and unearthly beautiful Nic. They both fall for his sparkling eyes and blond curls - and do everything they can to please him. He makes them kneel down and plays with their desire. Francis and Mary smile sourly and try to outdo each other. Nic takes their gifts and remains unmoved. At night, the three of them sleep in the same bed, but little happens. Will a trip to the country together decide the love duel? Stylish, self-assured and incredibly romantic: two years after his globally acclaimed debut "I Killed My Mother" (2009), the then 21-year-old Xavier Dolan followed up with this romantic comedy and enchanted an entire generation of young romantics. Dolan himself plays the pining Francis, while Monia Chokri and Niels Schneider play the other two tips of the amorous triangle. A passionate flow full of unforgettable images, melancholy songs and enchanting cinematic references. With an introduction by author Svenja Gräfen. Stills © Salzgeber
