| Summary |
Alexander Sokurov's portrait of the real-life collaboration that saved the Louvre Museum under the Nazi Occupation, a stunning and urgently relevant meditation on the essential relationship between art, culture, and history. Official Selection at the **Toronto International Film Festival**. Winner of the Fedora Award for Best Euro-Mediterranean Film and the Fondazione Mimmo Rotella Award and nominated for the Golden Lion at the **Venice Film Festival**. *"FRANCOFONIA is a brilliant meditation on art, on war - and what happens to art when nations go to war." - Steven Rea, **Philadelphia Inquirer*** *"As Sokurov examines a pivotal point in the Louvre's history and gives us a virtual tour of the magnificent museum, he makes larger points about the vital importance of art throughout human history. This is one of the most beautiful films of the year." - Richard Roeper, **Chicago Sun-Times*** |
