Thanks to Palace Films, we’re giving away 10 double passes to actor and director Louis Garrel’s infectiously funny The Innocent, in cinemas nationwide from April 13. It stars Little Women‘s Garrel as an anxious aquarium guide roped into his new stepdad’s latest crime caper, with Portrait of a Lady on Fire star Noémie Merlant along for the ride.

Synopsis: Lyon, present day. When widowed marine biologist Abel (Garrel) learns that his impulsive mum Sylvie (Anouk Grinberg) is once again re-marrying–this time to an inmate she met whilst teaching theatre in prison–he’s much more than uncomfortable. Doubting that convicted burglar Michel (Roschdy Zem) is capable of turning over a new leaf, Abel’s protective streak kicks in, and so with the help of his best friend Clémence (a sensational Noémie Merlant), he begins tailing his new stepfather’s movements.

Garrel’s witty and beautifully constructed film is a delirious mix of comedy, romance, suspense and action, with several twists too good to spoil. Selected as the special Gala Screening to celebrate the 75th Anniversary of the Cannes Film Festival—where it drew a thunderously positive response—this hilarious, quintessentially French comedy aims to please and does so effortlessly.
