Notre Dame

France, Belgium 2019 / Love story / Comedy / 89 minutes / Director: Valérie Donzelli / Suitable for 12 years and over

Fabulous French comedy by and with Valérie Donzelli

O mon Dieu! The lively Parisian architect Maud doesn't know where her head is anymore: Her boss picks on her all the time, her ex regularly besieges her bed and, oops, now she's pregnant. So it is both a blessing and a curse that Maud magically wins the most coveted tender in town: she gets to redesign the historic forecourt of Notre Dame. Will she manage to keep her cool amidst the press hype, love-crazed men and the eccentric mayor?

Cheeky and fabulous: director Valérie Donzelli also slips into the leading role of a single mother between career, family and great love in her cinematic comedy! She mixes romantic turbulence with unrealistic runaways à la Amélie and charming wit – an adorable ode to Paris that premiered at the Piazza Grande in Locarno and has already charmed French cinema audiences.
