The 2015 Castleton International Film Festival continues on Thursday, March 5 at 6:30pm with a screening of LE HAVRE. The film will be shown in Herrick Auditorium.

About the film:
In this warmhearted portrait of the French harbor city that gives thefilm its name, fate throws young African refugee Idrissa (BlondinMiguel) into the path of Marcel Marx (André Wilms), a well-spoken bohemian who works as a shoeshiner. With innate optimism and the unwavering support of his community, Marcel stands up to officials doggedly pursuing the boy for deportation. A political fairy tale that exists somewhere between the reality of contemporary France and the classic cinema of Jean-Pierre Melville and Marcel Carné, Le Havre is a charming, deadpan delight. Director Kaurismäki is the world’s most famous Finnish filmmaker, known for his singular blend of wry comedy and warm humanism
