Comedy / Drama
aka: 18 Years Old and Rising
Film Synopsis
It is on 10th May 1981, the very day that François Mitterrand was
first elected President of France, that Primo and Gabrielle meet for the
first time. Both are eighteen but they come from completely different
worlds. He is of humble origins, the son of a provincial shopkeeper;
she belongs to the affluent Parisian bourgeoisie. So impressed is he
by Gabrielle and her supremely elegant entourage that Primo feels he has
to pass himself off as something he is not. Unable to admit his lowly
status, he pretends he is a much more upwardly mobile individual. He
will need every ounce of daring and imagination he possess to keep up this
apparently harmless deception, or else he will surely end up making himself
look a complete fool...

The best of British film comedies
British cinema excels in comedy, from the genius of Will Hay to the camp lunacy of the Carry Ons.
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.
Continental Films, quality cinema under the Nazi Occupation
At the time of the Nazi Occupation of France during WWII, the German-run company Continental produced some of the finest films made in France in the 1940s.
