Film Synopsis
Arthur is overwhelmed with excitement as the moon reaches the end of
its tenth cycle. He can at last return to the land of the
Minimoys to be reunited with his beloved Sélénia.
In the village, a great banquet is being prepared in his honour and the
little princess has adorned herself in a dress of rose petals.
Everyone is brimming with anticipation but the one who is most looking
forward to Arthur's return is his father. When the time comes to

The best French films of 2019
Our round-up of the best French films released in 2019.
From Jean Renoir to François Truffaut, French cinema has no shortage of truly great filmmakers, each bringing a unique approach to the art of filmmaking.
In the 1910s, French cinema led the way with a new industry which actively encouraged innovation. From the serials of Louis Feuillade to the first auteur pieces of Abel Gance, this decade is rich in cinematic marvels.
Science-fiction came into its own in B-movies of the 1950s, but it remains a respected and popular genre, bursting into the mainstream in the late 1970s.
