BEATING HEARTS | Alliance Française French Film Festival Valentine's Preview Event

Be the first to get a taste of the 2025 Alliance Française French Film Festival with an exclusive Valentine’s Day Preview of the incredible, thrillingly romantic box office sensation Beating Hearts (MA15+), screening ahead of the Festival's official opening this March!

Join us on Friday, February 14 for a French 75 cocktail on arrival, receive an express copy of the official Festival programme booklet and see previews of major Festival highlights before the feature.

Starring the phenomenal Adèle Exarchopoulos (Blue Is The Warmest Colour) and François Civil (The Three Musketeers) – arguably French cinema’s brightest young talents –Gilles Lellouche’s vibrant, genre-spanning romantic epic Beating Hearts follows a written-in-the-stars infatuation tested by social boundaries, betrayal and circumstances beyond all control.

Driven by a kinetic soundtrack by Jon Brion, indelible production design and all-star supporting cast, the film pays homage to the US independent film wave of the 80s and early 90s but creates an impact truly of its own.Delivering another massive, crowd-pleasing blockbuster result at the French box office (after Sink Or Swim) with an extraordinary 5 million admissions, Lellouche reaches for the stars and rewards all who strap in for the ride. Don’t miss it!
