A man meets a woman in Paris...
This comedy features Andre (Jamel Debbouze, 2006 Cannes Film Festival Best Actor award - male ensemble), and he is in trouble. He has just returned to Paris in hope of making some easy money, give up his life of petty crime and start his life over as an honest man in America. In Paris for only a few hours, Andre suddenly finds himself dangling high over the edge of the Eiffel Tower, begging for his life from a man he hoped never to see again. With his underworld dealing catching up with him, Andre is given 24 hours to find 20,000 Euros to pay his debts and save his life. Andre is left with nowhere to turn and with his deadline fast approaching, he desparingly climbs onto the ledge of a bridge and gathers the resolve to jump into the river. But, he is not alone. Beside him, a beautiful and mysterious woman is a moment away from throwing herself into Le Seine. From that moment, their lives become entertwined, as Andre tries to unravel her secret.

GOYA'S GHOSTS
SUNDAY at 7PM
A Film by Academy-Award winning director Milos Foreman
See it before Milos Foreman comes to the Savannah Film Festival!!
In 1792 in Spain, amidst the turmoil of the French Revolution, renowned painter Francisco Goya (Stellan Skarsgard) becomes embroiled in the Spanish Inquisition after his beautiful muse Ines is accused of being a heretic and put on trial. Goya must beg for her life to be spared through his old friend Lorenzo (Javier Bardem), a power-hungry monk who is spearheading the revival of the Inquisition. Ines (Natalie Portman) is imprisoned, tortured, and left to perish in the dungeons, while Lorenzo is eventually banished from the Spanish church. Some twenty years pass, and Goya is at the height of his creativity, but he has become deaf and somewhat insane. The three meet again after the French abolish the Inquisition and set the prisoners free, and Lorenzo becomes Napoleon's chief prosecutor against his former Spanish allies.
