The Festival du nouveau cinéma has nabbed Alfonso Cuaron’s new film Roma. Roma won the Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival and was also shown to great acclaim at the Telluride Film Festival and Toronto International Film Festival.
According to an email from FNC “the film follows Cleo (Yalitza Aparicio), a young domestic worker for a family in the middle-class neighborhood of Roma in Mexico City. Delivering an artful love letter to the women who raised him, Cuarón draws on his own childhood to create a vivid and emotional portrait of domestic strife and social hierarchy amidst political turmoil of the 1970s.”
Roma will be shown on Sunday, Oct. 14, 2018, at 6 p.m. at the Imperial Cinema, 1430 Bleury, Montréal, QC H3A 2J1
Roma will be available in theatres and on Netflix in December. But why not see it this month? And of course, a theatre would be the best place to see it.
