Boîte à surprises
For its fifth anniversary, Cinéma Public is opening its Boîte à surprises! Each member of our team has tucked in a film or a program they love. It’s a bit of an excuse to fulfil some of our programming dreams… and a chance to share them with you. A gift to you, and to us! We’ll unwrap the series one program at a time, all through the 2026-2027 season.

La guerre froide
A passionate love story between two people of different backgrounds and temperaments, who are fatally mismatched and yet fatefully condemned to each other. Set against the background of the Cold War, the film depicts an impossible love story in impossible times.
