The Catch-Up Session #13: Amour Apocalypse
Too quirky, unique, experimental or simply different, some films struggle to find their place in cinemas and fade into the shadows. It's often regrettable. La Scala therefore dedicates a unique, monthly session to them.
"AMOUR APOCALYPSE" by Quebec director Anne Émond, starring Patrick Hivon, Piper Perabo, Gilles Renaud, Connor Jessup. Adam, 45, the owner of a kennel, is eco-anxious. Through the after-sales support line for his new light therapy lamp, he meets Tina. This unexpected encounter disrupts everything: the earth trembles, hearts explode... it's love!
AMOUR APOCALYPSE delights in upending conventions. Here, love is neither wise nor reassuring: it appears in the midst of chaos, clumsiness, and a delightfully imperfect humanity. The film takes a distinctly offbeat tone, where absurdity flirts with tenderness, revealing very real emotions. Between dark humor, unpredictable dialogues, and self-mockery, AMOUR APOCALYPSE observes romantic impulses as if watching the end of the world: with panic, lucidity, and a slightly nervous laugh. A unique, funny and touching film, which proves that even when everything seems to collapse, love always finds unexpected ways.
