Passages - Expat Cinema Rotterdam
Miss seeing international films because you can’t yet keep up with the Dutch subtitles? Want to meet fellow expats and new Dutch folks? Love cinema? Then this is the event for you! Curated international films with English subtitles and networking drinks. Join Expat Cinema Rotterdam for the best international art house cinema with English subtitles and networking drinks afterwards.
Tomas (Franz Rogowski) and Martin (Ben Whishaw) have been together for fifteen years. Their happy marriage is turned upside down when one of them begins an affair with a young woman (Adèle Exarchopoulos). A shameless portrait of modern love.
Ira Sachs’ portrait of a love triangle in contemporary Paris is true to life, sometimes comical, but does not shy away from the struggle of those involved with each other and their ideas about love. What is the difference between lust and love? Who is using whom? How open can a marriage be? What if Martin takes a second boyfriend?
Passages, the eighth feature from the director of Forty Shades of Blue and Love Is Strange, was praised as an emotionally intelligent, explicit exploration of love and as a portrait of contemporary narcissism: for Tomas, it’s all about him. Critics saw similarities to the films of Fassbinder and Maurice Pialat.
