Three people on a train in the film Maine Ocean (1986)
Our Jacques Rozier series concludes with a real hidden gem: MAINE OCEAN.
A comic odyssey that follows a motley crew as they gather near the west coast of France. A film about language, travel, class, freedom, camaraderie, music, life.

Our Michael Snow weekend kicks off tomorrow at the ICA. These films are hardly ever screened nowadays - don't miss out! www.ica.art/films/in-foc...
10 days to go until our rare 16mm screening of Michael Snow's masterpiece* WAVELENGTH. Screening with the hilarious, hugely underseen SO IS THIS, part of a weekend of Snow films.
*A YT video with 880k views proclaims Wavelength the 'worst film ever'. Agree to disagree.
