Une affaire d'honneur, Vincent Perez (France, 2023) 

Paris, 1887. In a rapidly evolving society, duels are officially prohibited, but they are still the last option to defend honor. Clément Lacaze, charismatic fencing master, finds himself trapped in a spiral of destructive violence. He meets Marie-Rose Astié, a feminist ahead of her time, and decides to teach her the complex art of dueling. 

Film will be screened in French and subtitled in Spanish on April 18th and 19th, and in Catalan on April 20th. Two of the screening will include a colloquium with Vincent Perez (director, actor, scriptwriter) and Karen Silla (co-scriptwriter).
