Let's watch Louise Courvoisier's last film, which was awarded the Youth prize of the selection "Un certain regard" at the last Cannes film festival. The English title, Holy Cow, hints at the rural setting. The French title, Vingt dieux, hints at reaching for the sky and is a local idiom. But my favourite is the German title, Könige des Sommers.

Totone's carefree teenage life of drinking and dancing takes a turn when he must provide for his 7-year-old sister. Seeking income, he channels his energy into producing an award-winning comté cheese to claim a competition prize.

French original with German subtitles. Please buy your ticket either at Protected content or at the theater itself.

After the movie we gather for an optional drink at Theatiner 8.
