Red Island

At the beginning of the 70s, in Madagascar, a few armed forces and their families live in one of the last French military bases abroad, a relic of the ending French colonial empire. Influenced by his reading of the intrepid comic book heroine Fantômette, Thomas, a ten-year-old boy, sweeps with a curious glance what surrounds him. Beneath the carefree expatriate life, his eyes are gradually opening to another reality.

Red Island comes to Haifa from its world premiere at the San Sebastian Festival. After the success of his previous film, 120 BPM, filmmaker Robin Campillo once again mines his own memories to present a sun-filled and darkly-shadowed drama.

Filmography: 120 BPM (2017), Eastern Boys (2013), They Came Back (2004).
