LOURDES; Austria/ France/Germany, 2009, 96 mins, (G) Drama/
Comedy
Dir:
Jessica Hausner. Stars: Sylvie Testud, Lea Seydoux.
In order
to escape her isolation, wheelchair-bound Christine makes a life
changing journey to Lourdes, the iconic site of pilgrimage in the
Pyrenees Mountains. A low-key but often beguiling oddity that attempts
an ambitious fusion of the sublime and the corporeal in the unlikely
form of a wry comedy of manners. |
