THE HEDGEHOG, Drama, NR, 100 min., French and Japanese w/ English subtitles
Inspired by the beloved New York Times bestseller, The Elegance of the Hedgehog, by Muriel Barbery, THE HEDGEHOG is the timely story of Paloma (Garance Le Guillermic) a young girl bent on ending it all on her upcoming twelfth birthday.
Using her father's old camcorder to chronicle the hypocrisy she sees in adults, Paloma begins to learn about life from the grumpy building concierge, Renée Michel (FRENCH TWIST's Josiane Balasko). When Paloma's camera reveals the extensive secret library in Renée's back room, and that the often gruff matron reads Tolstoy to her cat, Paloma begins to understand that there are allies to be found beneath the prickliest of exteriors. As the unlikely friendship deepens, Paloma's own coming of age becomes a much less pessimistic prospect.
"Whimsical and touching Mona Achache's adaptation is wistful perfection." - Moira Macdonald, Seattle Times
"A film that gives you everything: laughs, tears, charm and -- best of all -- the unexpected." -James van Maanen, TrustMovies
