Jean Eustache : the filmmaker returns to the cinema for an exceptional retrospective

The re-release of Jean Eustache's La Maman et la Putain, almost fifty years after its first run in theaters, had been a surprise success, during the spring of 2022. With its 30,000 admissions in a dozen theaters, it was one of the biggest box office re-releases of the year. This success opened the way for the rest of Jean Eustache's filmography.

The filmmaker is celebrated, on June 7, 2023, with the re-release of ten of his films, restored in 4K version, on the occasion of a unique retrospective.

This is an opportunity to discover more about almost 20 years of French cinema history, and about a filmmaker long relegated to the background and outcast, because of his sometimes sulphurous films, as was notably the case for La Maman et la Putain.
