Ooh la la
French cinema is often associated with films that are sexually provocative, risqué and controversial. Under the ‘Ooh La La’ banner we aim to celebrate the classics of this genre with work from auteurs such as Catherine Breillat (Une Vraie Jeune Fille, 36 Fillette) or Jean-Claude Brisseau (L¹Ange Noir).
