Anne Walberg is a celebrity in the perfume world. She creates fragrances and sells her incredible talent to companies of all kinds. She lives as a diva, selfish, well-tempered. Guillaume is her new driver and the only one who is not afraid to stand up to her. No doubt this is the reason why she does not fire him.

French Friday Film & Food CHB
more info & registration
Friday 17 February is when we will be holding our first 2023 film evening in Central Hawkes Bay. We have chosen a summer themed film.
A l'abordage  - All Aboard (2021)
On a hot summer night in Paris, Félix meets a young woman, Alma, and falls in love. The next morning, Alma hops on a train to join her family in southern France. Félix, determined to follow his soulmate, embarks on a carpool ride with his best friend Chérif and their reluctant driver Edouard. When the car breaks down upon arrival, things turn sour: Alma doesn’t seem too pleased by this unexpected visit to reality?
Once again suggested $10 koha with any profits going to the Rural Trust East Coast. We are hoping to have  a Food Truck so you can buy dinner!

"This beguiling little charmer of a film is not so much about big romantic gestures, but rather the small, delicately observed moments of connection."   - Screen International
