Trilogy: One

Directed by Lucas Belvaux

An engaging experiment in narrative filmmaking “à la Kieslowski’s” THREE COLOURS, LA TRILOGIE is a cycle of three films, each in a different genre, but sharing sets, scenes, and characters, to varying degrees. The first instalment is a thriller in which former leftist revolutionary Bruno escapes from jail. Despite 15 years away, he hasn’t changed and is ready to re-unite the movement and continue the armed struggle to free the masses. But the world has changed and so have his former comrades. Cops and gangsters pursue, yet Bruno vows to fight on.Parts 2 (Comedy) and 3 (Melodrama) will screen in December.
