The screening will take place on Thursday, September 18, 2025.
Cinema At L'Alliance New York will present a screening of Black & White. One of the most exceptional debut features of the last forty years, and winner of the Camera d'or at Cannes, Noir et blanc is a film like no other, and with this new restoration should instantly be regarded as such. Two men, a white accountant and a Black masseuse, both work at a sports club, where their sessions increase in intensity. Soon they are on a shared path on which, only perhaps, neither expected to join the other. Oblique, stark and riveting cinema.
The 7pm screening will be followed by a Q&A with director Claire Devers, moderated by film scholar, professor and author Michael B. Gillespie.
Claire Devers, 1986, 80min, DCP
Starring Francis Frappat, Jacques Martial, Joséphine Fresson, Marc Berman
