A Secret / Un secret Series: Rendez-Vous with French Cinema 2008 [February 29 - March 9] Director: Claude Miller, Country: France, Release: 2007, Runtime: 105 As a child in the ‘50s, François could never live up to the expectations of his robust, gymnast father. Frail and sickly, he was sure that somehow he didn’t belong, that there was something amiss with his otherwise picture-perfect family. When a neighbor tells François the secret behind his family, the film transports us back to months right before the outbreak of the war. It was a moment in which France’s Jewish community was divided between those who believed that a German invasion would spell disaster and those who believed their “Frenchness” would protect them. Adapting Philippe Grimbert’s novel (soon to be published in the U.S.), Claude Miller (with Natalie Carter) employs a complex flashback structure that also features sequences set in 1985 to show how the tides of history and family memory continue to effect the present. A Secret shared the award for Best Film at the 2007 Montreal World Film Festival and was a major box-office success in France last year. With Mathieu Amalric, Ludovine Sagnier, Cecile de France, Julie Depardieu and Patrick Bruel.
