SUMMARY:French Film Festival (Opening Night) | US Premiere Screening of "Rodrigue in Love" (2025) + Q&A with filmmaker Johann Dionnet
DESCRIPTION:As part of the opening night of the fourth edition of the Princeton French Film Festival\, you are invited to the US premiere screening of “Rodrigue in Love” (2025) (French: “Avignon”)\, followed by a Q&A with actor and filmmaker Johann Dionnet. \n🏆 Winner of the Grand Prix\, the Prix Coup de Coeur\, and the Prix Canal + at the 2025 comedy-focused Festival d’Alpes d’Huez \n🍹 Reception with drinks and snacks to follow. \nLogistics:\nIn French with English subtitles\, this event will take place on Friday\, March 20\, 2026 from 7:30 PM. Open to everyone upon registration. \nSynopsis:\nTo make ends meet\, Stéphane\, an out-of-work actor\, reluctantly agrees to join his former troupe for one final performance in a popular comedy at the Avignon Theatre Festival—a vibrant stage where all genres of theatre exist side by side\, yet never truly intersect. While at the festival\, Stéphane crosses paths with Fanny\, a former intern and colleague who is now starring in a Victor Hugo classic. Determined to impress her\, he impulsively claims he is playing the prestigious lead role of Rodrigue in Corneille’s Le Cid—her favorite play. What begins as a small white lie quickly spirals into a tangled web of deceit\, awkward encounters\, and absurd improvisations. With the help of his troupe members\, Stéphane tries to come clean\, but his growing infatuation with Fanny clouds his judgment. How long can he maintain the charade before it all falls apart? \nOrganized by the Princeton University’s Princeton Film Festival organization. We thank our sponsors and partners for their support\, including Princeton’s French Center for Excellence (complete list on our website). Open to everyone regardless of identity. All rooms are wheelchair-friendly and attendees can contact us at filmfestival@princeton.edu for special accommodations (preferably 48 hours before the scheduled event). Please be aware that pictures might be taken before\, during\, and after the event. \nImage courtesy of Studio TF1
