Arthshila Ahmedabad’s Film Showcase this week features ‘Mon Oncle’ by Jacques Tati.

Jacques Tati’s eccentric, old-fashioned hero, Monsieur Hulot, is set loose in Villa Arpel, the geometric, oppressively ultramodern home of his brother-in-law, and in the antiseptic plastic hose factory where he gets a job. The second Hulot movie and Tati’s first color film, Mon Oncle is a supremely amusing satire of mechanized living and consumer society that earned the director the Academy Award for best foreign-language film.

Join us for the screening at 5.00 pm from 10-14 May 2022 (Tuesday – Saturday).
