Army of Shadows | AFFFF25 Classique Présentation

Restored in 4k, Alliance Française French Film Festival presents an exclusive screening of the thrilling masterpiece of French cinema, Army of Shadows.

Based on director Jean-Pierre Melville's own experiences and presented at Cannes Classics in 2024, Army of Shadows is an unglamorous and nuanced study of the French Resistance, eating itself from the inside.

Set in Nazi-occupied France, the film follows a group of Resistance fighters trying to evade capture. The result is a fatalistic exploration of fraternity, betrayal, and personal integrity. Banned on its 1969 French release, Army of Shadows remains one of the greatest war films ever made. A must-see for cinephiles.
