Title: Win 1/10 'Sister' double in-season passes Post by: culturebird on Tuesday 29 October 2013, 01:20:42 am (http://t3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTloLkWpjkDxxKZzTUZpeggNqeREOlA66BNrpRDDaTnbyfuOzq9WQ)
Léa Seydoux (Farewell My Queen, Blue Is The Warmest Colour) delivers on her promise as France’s next breakthrough star with her astonishing performance in Sister, Ursula Meier’s internationally-heralded and extraordinarily moving new drama about two siblings searching for a place in the world. 12-year-old Simon (Kacey Mottet Klein) lives with his restless older sister Louise (Seydoux) at the base of the Swiss Alps. Every day he takes the cable car to the ski resorts above to pilfer from rich tourists, while Louise drifts through a series of part-time jobs and promiscuity, sometimes disappearing for days on end. In her absence, Simon forges a strong bond with a wealthy tourist (Gillian Anderson), and his fragile relationship with his sister fractures into dangerous new territory… Against the striking canvas of the Alps, Meier’s deeply humanist drama is in the grand tradition of the Dardenne brothers; an adroit and compassionate exploration of the intimacy of two souls struggling with an unquenchable thirst for love. Enthusiastically embraced at the 2012 Berlin Film Festival where the Mike Leigh led-jury awarded it the Silver Bear, Sister went on to be a sleeper hit in France last spring, achieving nearly half a million admissions. Sister is released in cinemas on October 31st, and thanks to Palace Films we have 10 double passes to give away to readers in Australia. To go into the draw for this giveaway, email your name and address to sarah@trespassmag.com by October 31st. Please remember to put ‘Sister’ in the subject line of the email. Only one entry per person will be accepted. |
