Event details

Join us for the classic 1949 French comedy, Jour de Fête.  Jacques Tati’s debut feature film, it follows a clumsy, scatter-brained postman François, who is goaded into watching a film about the efficient United States postal system at a village fair. Inspired by the film, a bumbling François sets off on his bicycle to become just like a USA mail carrier…   

Jour de Fête is presented in collaboration with Ciné Lumière, part of the Institut français du Royaume-Uni in London.
