Our film this month will be SAMBA.

Run time: 1hour 58minutes.

From the directors of Intouchables, Samba is a crowd pleasing social comedy / drama /  and offers an audience friendly approach to a difficult subject. It is based on a novel by Delphine Coulin.

Samba migrated to France ten years ago from Senegal, and has since been plugging away at various lowly jobs. Alice is a senior executive who has recently undergone a burn-out. Both struggle to get out of their dead-end lives. Samba's willing to do whatever it takes to get working papers, while Alice tries to get her life back on track until fate draws them together.
