PREVIEW: PASSAGES + Q&A Director: Ira Sachs 91 mins, France-Germany, 2023, Digital, Subtitled Please enable cookies if you want to view this trailer Book cinema tickets German filmmaker Tomas (Franz Rogowski) is finishing a shoot in Paris; at the wrap party, his British husband Martin (Ben Whishaw) leaves early, and Tomas spends the night with Agathe (Adèle Exarchopoulos), a young woman working on the production, an experience he excitedly shares with his husband. Martin, grown weary of his impulsive, boundary-defying husband, cannot share Tomas’s enthusiasm. Before long, Tomas has moved in with Agathe, yet can’t conceive of a life without Martin. Ira Sachs elicits marvelous performances from his exemplary cast, with the magnetic Rogowski as the volatile, destructive Tomas, being especially memorable. This screening will be followed by a Q&A with Ira Sachs, hosted by Roe McDermott. Passages opens at the IFI from Friday, September 1st.
