Barbara will be screened today at 7.30pm at the Spazju Kreattiv Cinema, Valletta.
Brigitte (Jeanne Balibar) has been cast to play the title role in an upcoming film based on the life of Barbara. As the film’s director, Yves (Mathieu Amalric) – himself obsessed with Barbara – drives Brigitte on an uncompromising search to unearth the vocal, intellectual and emotional essence that made her one of the most popular entertainers in France of the 1960s and 1970s. Reality and fantasy merge into one, as she ‘becomes’ Barbara in the finest of method-acting traditions.
The screening of Barbara will take place today at 7.30pm at the Spazju Kreattiv cinema, Valletta. The film is in French with English subtitles. This screening is a collaboration between the Alliance Française de Malte Mediterranée and Spazju Kreattiv with the support of the French Embassy and the Institut Français. Entrance is free but booking is required.
