VALLEY OF LOVE
In this mysterious and beautiful examination of a broken family, acclaimed actors, Isabelle Huppert and Gerard Depardieu play thinly disguised versions of themselves as a separated couple who journey to Death Valley after receiving a mysterious letter from their dead son in the expectations that he will appear to them at a certain place and time in the desert. An official selection at the Cannes Film Festival, VALLEY OF LOVE opens this year’s Rendezvous In French Cinema.
“Ms. Huppert and Mr. Depardieu are such tremendous, epochal screen presences and performers.” – The New York Times
“[A] mixture of mystical road movie and family psychodrama.” – Screen International
“There are gentle rewards to be gained from the initially brittle, gradually tender rapport between two actors of contrasting greatness.” – Variety
