Whatever Happened to My Revolution

  VERSION FRANÇAISE

  Presentation by and discussion with music composer Boris Boublil

Angèle was 8 years old when the first McDonald’s opened in East Berlin… Since then, she has been fighting against the curse of her generation: being born « too late », at the time of the global political depression.

She comes from a family of activists, but her mother gave up her political combat overnight and move to the countryside alone, and her sister chose the business world. Only her father, a former Maoist to whom she moves back to live with, remained faithful to his ideals. Being angry and determined, Angèle tries as hard as she can to change the world as she is to flee from romantic encounters.

What remains for her from the revolution, from its transmissions, its missed appointments and its hopes waiting to be built? Sometimes Don Quixote, sometimes Bridget Jones, Angèle tries to find a balance . . .
