New Film From French Director, Romain-Gavras (M.I.A's Born Free)
You likely have never heard the name, "Romain-Gavras", but if you took in the arduous 9-minutes of M.I.A's "Born Free" video, unbeknownst to you, you have!
He's the son of French political filmaker, Costa-Gavras (Z and Missing), and has been creating a reputation of being a raw, shocking and intense filmaker, with videos like Justice's "Stess", and now, a feature film that also looks rather hard to stomach at moments.
His first film, Notre Jour Vienda (Our Day Will Come), stars Vincent Cassel and Olivier Barthelemy, and is the story of a teen who leaves Ireland after being a victim of abuse. The trailer doesn't do much for the narrative, although it does give you an insight into his style and the magnitude of the film's potential vigor.
The theatrical release is slated for September 15th, 2010.
