Bent over a wide blank sheet somewhere between Montmartre and Saint-Germain-des-Prés, Jean-Jacques Sempé and René Goscinny bring to life a mischievous, quick-witted little boy: Little Nicolas. Amid friendship, quarrels, scuffles, games, pranks, and endless punishments, Nicolas experiences a childhood shaped by joy and discovery. As the story unfolds, the boy slips into his creators’ studio and playfully calls out to them. Sempé and Goscinny recount their first meeting, their friendship, as well as their journeys, their secrets, and their own childhood memories.

Le Ciné Club at Alliance Française de Manille invites you to Eugénie Grandet screening on March 11, 2026 !

Eugénie Grandet, de Marc Dugain (2021)| March 11, 2026 | 7:30 PM | Duration: 1h43 | Themes : Drama

🎭 Synopsis
Félix Grandet reigns supreme in his modest home in Saumur, where his wife and daughter Eugénie live a joyless, uneventful existence. Driven by an extraordinary avarice, he views with suspicion the fine suitors eager to seek his daughter’s hand. Nothing must threaten the colossal fortune he keeps hidden from all. The arrival of Grandet’s nephew, a Parisian dandy, now orphaned and penniless, upends the young woman’s life. Eugénie’s love and generosity toward her cousin plunge Father Grandet into a fury without limits. Faced with his daughter, he proves more than ever willing to sacrifice everything on the altar of profit, even his own family. Adapted from the eponymous work by Balzac.
