Irish Film Institute -FRENCH FILM FESTIVAL: THE MAN WITH A THOUSAND FACES

FRENCH FILM FESTIVAL: THE MAN WITH A THOUSAND FACES

Director: Sonia Kronlund

90 mins, France, 2024, Digital, Subtitled, F-Rated

Ricardo, Alexandre, or Daniel? With different identities he seduces women across the globe. They each love the same man, but one of them begins to doubt Ricardo’s story and it emerges she is not the only one in his life. This documentary from writer-director Sonia Kronlund (The Prince of Nothingwood), by turns a gripping thriller and adventure, is both an account of a scams, and a story of female solidarity. It also raises ethical questions about documentary making, blurring reality/fact and fiction, and what a director can ask his characters to do.

Notes by Marie-Pierre Richard.

Screening as part of IFI French Film Festival 2024.
