"Pioneer" will celebrate the 26th anniversary of Xavier Dolan

On March 21, by the 26th anniversary of Xavier Dolan, two films will be shown in the Moscow cinema Pioneer, which show the talent of a Canadian filmmaker from different sides-as an actor (“Song of the Elephant”) and as a director (“Lawns”).

The twenty -five -year -old Xavier Dolan is one of the most fashionable characters in modern cinema. A rebel, romantic, Anfan Territable, already having five films behind him (the debut “I killed my mother”, he shot at twenty years). Critics call him the main heir to Francois Ozon and Pedro Almodovar. Repeated participant and laureate of the Cannes festival.

"Pioneer Night Xavier Dolan" begins at 22:30.

The Song of the Elephant ( La Chanson de l'éléphant / Elephant Song , 2014) is the film Charles Biname based on the play by Nicholas Billon - acting benefit Xavier Dolan. The mid-1960s, Dr. Lawrence disappears in a famous psychiatric clinic. The last one who saw him is the patient Michael Alin (Dolan). The manager of the clinic Toby Green calls him to a frank conversation, which will lead both far into the past, but still give an answer to the question: where did Dr. Lawrence go?

The film is shown in English with Russian subtitles.

“And yet Laurence Anyways , 2012) is the third and possibly the most mature directorial film of Dolan, a universal and exciting lave-story, shot with a romantic drive and genuine freedom. 1980s. The main character (Melville Pupo) nourishes weakness for dressing in women's clothing, not knowing how to live with it and, most importantly, how to maintain relations with a woman that he loves seriously and smashes. Their turbulent romance-with separation, reunification, its breakdowns, its travee-escapades-covers two decades and ends in two thousandths.

The film is shown in French with Russian subtitles.
