Synopsis
Forrest Gump
A man with a low IQ has accomplished great things in his life and been present during significant historic events—in each case, far exceeding what anyone imagined he could do. But despite all he has achieved, his one true love eludes him.
Mektoub, My Love: Canto Due
Amin returns to Sète after studying in Paris, still dreaming of cinema. By chance, an American producer on vacation takes an interest in his project and wants his wife, Jess, to play the lead role. But fate, whimsical as ever, has its own rules.
