Kaadris: François Ozon's Summer of 85

The November focus programme at Kai cinema, Kaadris, features the film Summer of 85 by French director François Ozon (2020, drama and romance, 1 h 40 min, French with Estonian and Russian subtitles). When 16-year-old Alexis capsizes off the Normandy coast, a couple of years older David rushes to save him. They become reckless friends, sailing and riding motorbikes and living passionately through the summer of 1985, as if it were the last summer of their youth.

The film shows youthful confusion and jealousy shadowing sunlit relationships. Ozon returns here to the themes and visuals where his career began, after premiering the film at Cannes. On the same day, a combo ticket for the exhibition and the screening costs €15 (concession €10). The gallery is open until 18:00, so please visit the exhibition before the screening.
