Wracked with guilt after unjustly punishing her daughter Linda, widowed mother Paulette resolves to do anything to make it up to her. What does the girl want? A meal of chicken with peppers, which reminds her of the dish her father used to make. But with a general strike closing stores all across town and pushing people into the streets, this innocent request quickly leads to an outrageous series of events that spirals out of control, as Paulette does everything she can to keep her promise and find a chicken for Linda. Directors Chiara Malta and Sébastien Laudenbach unleash a unique visual marvel of hand-painted animation with bright, color-blocked characters, and a story that blends slapstick comedy, musical, and family drama, as Paulette and Linda ultimately confront the grief of an unspoken tragedy through the meal that could finally bring them closer together.

Writer/director Julien Rappeneau's follow-up to his 2016 debut hit Rosalie Blum, OF LOVE AND LIES is the uplifting story of irrepressible 12-year old Théo. Théo wants nothing more than to offer hope to his disillusioned father, Laurent, when an opportunity comes for Théo to try out for the youth training programme of English football club Arsenal. Despite showing obvious talent, he's rejected for being too small, so Théo impulsively articulates a well-meaning fiction... one that quickly spirals and overtakes not just his life, but all those around him. As with Rosalie Blum, Rappeneau demonstrates skill at bringing empathy, humour and charm to the lives of ordinary people with this rousing and heartfelt story. Its timeless message of determination and community will speak to viewers of any age - or size.
