Misericordia

“For sheer suspense, few recent thrillers match Alain Guiraudie’s low-key but high-anxiety mystery Misericordia.”–Richard Brody, The New Yorker

The teasingly entwined ambiguities of love and death continue to fascinate Alain Guiraudie (Stranger by the Lake, NYFF51), who returns at the top of his game with a sharp, sinister, slyly funny thriller about a young man who returns to his small hometown in rural France and insinuates himself into the lives of a series of acquaintances.

Q&A with Alain Guiraudie, moderated by Graham Fuller: Friday at 6:15pm
