About the Event

🎬 Cineclub Buñuel presents “Once Upon My Mother” (Ma mère, Dieu et Sylvie Vartan), a moving French-Canadian comedy-drama directed by Ken Scott and adapted from Roland Perez’s autobiographical novel. 🧠 Set in Paris, 1963, the film follows Roland, born with a clubfoot, and his mother Esther, who refuses to believe her son’s life will be limited to crutches or a wheelchair. With the songs of Sylvie Vartan as a constant presence, the story shows how unconditional love, determination and music help Roland overcome obstacles and build the brilliant life his mother dreamed of for him. 🎥 Starring Leïla Bekhti, Jonathan Cohen and Joséphine Japy, the film has become one of France’s box-office successes of 2025, praised for its warmth and emotional impact. 📍 Screenings: Marbella – IES Río Verde Wednesday 12 November, 8:00 p.m. Thursday 13 November, 8:00 p.m.
