Chicken for Linda!
Showtimes June 8 - 9:
Paulette feels guilty after unjustly punishing her daughter, Linda, and would do anything to make it up to her. Linda immediately asks for a meal of chicken with peppers, which reminds her of the dish that her father used to make. But with a general strike closing stores all across town and pushing people into the streets, this innocent request quickly leads to an outrageous series of events that spirals out of control, as Paulette does everything she can to keep her promise and find a chicken for Linda.
Chicken for Linda! debuted at Cannes before going on to win the Grand Jury Prize at Animation Is Film, the Lumières Award and the César for Best Animated Feature. Peter Debrudge writes, “In retrospect, I wouldn’t hesitate to call Chicken for Linda! the best film of Cannes this year.”
