Collaborative film club Alliance Française de York: Toni, en famille

The Alliance Française de York is pleased to present the Cinéphiles club to offer screenings of French and Francophone films at York St John University.

From historical classics to genre-bending, new movies, we hope to provide an environment to watch films and practice French listening. All films will have English subtitles to be accessible for all.

We invite you to join us for this screening and enjoy the best of French cinema. Toni is raising her five children alone. A full-time job. She sings at bars in the evenings to put food on the table and had a hit single 20 years ago.

Today, as her two eldest prepare to go to college, Toni wonders: what will she do when all of her offspring have left home? At 43 years old, is it too late to start again? This coup-de-force performance by Camille Cottin examines the sacrifices done by single parents and examines the arduous journey of those aiming to change pathways later on in life.

This season of Cinéphiles sessions is in collaboration with York St John University and the Alliance Français de York.

The film runtime is 96 minutes.

This film is rated PG for violence. Content warning for attempted suicide.
