"Patchwork" Karlovy Vary International Film Festival World Premiere
Sous le ciel d'Alice (Skies of Lebanon) in Semaine de la Critique Cannes 2020
Chloé Mazlo's debut feature film "Sous le ciel d'Alice" (Skies of Lebanon) has been selected for Semaine de la Critique Cannes 2020. The film was partly shot on location in Cyprus in collaboration with AMP Filmworks.
In the fifties, young Alice leaves her natal Swiss mountains for the sunny and vibrant shores of Beirut. She falls madly in love with Joseph, a quirky astrophysicist intent on sending the first Lebanese national into space. Alice quickly fits in among his relatives, but after years of bliss, the civil war threatens their Garden of Eden.
