Love on the Run

1979

For five times, over a period of twenty years, the legendary Jean-Pierre Léaud portrayed the alter ego of the just as iconic French Nouvelle Vague director François Truffaut. As Antoine Doinel, he first appears in his breakthrough film, and key film of the innovative wave, LES QUATRE CENTS COUPS. Thereafter, four more films follow. In May and June, CINEA brings the entire Doinel series back to Flemish cinemas, in a digitally restored 4K version!

After Doine fell in love in ANTOINE ET COLETTE (1962) and subsequently started a relationship with the brave Christine in BAISERS VOLÉS (1968), DOMICILE CONJUGAL (1970) shows their first marital years. Nine years later, they break up in L'AMOUR EN FUITE, a mosaic film rich in nostalgia and reverie. Antoine is thirty and works as a proofreader. It's the first divorce " without blame" in , and a media circus erupts that dredges up Antoine's past. Doubting about his new love with a store clerk, he impulsively runs away with an old flame.
