A digital restoration of Jean-Pierre Jeunet’s award-winning classic!

Amelie Poulain (Audrey Tautou) lives in Paris, and in a world of her own. Introverted, but with a very extroverted imagination, Amelie is obsessed with the small pleasures of life and believes she can twist the fate of others by affecting the slightest changes in their environment. So she sets out to give the lonely and unloved a new lease of life, taking some time to enjoy skimming stones and planning to win the heart of Nino (Mathieu Kassovitz).

Released in 2001, Amélie (Le Fabuleux Destin d’Amélie Poulain) became an international sensation thanks to its whimsical storytelling, dazzling Parisian imagery and unforgettable score by Yann Tiersen. Directed by Jean-Pierre Jeunet and starring Audrey Tautou, the film follows a shy young woman who quietly transforms the lives of those around her while searching for love herself.

Widely celebrated as one of the most charming and visually distinctive films of the 21st century, Amélie received five Academy Award nominations, including Best Foreign Language Film and Best Original Screenplay, and went on to win Best Original Screenplay at the BAFTA Awards. The film also won major honours at the European Film Awards, including Best Film and Best Director, along with dozens of international critics’ prizes and audience awards.

Critics and audiences alike embraced its magical tone and inventive style, with many praising its warmth and optimism. As one review famously put it, the film is “a charming fantasy about love and kindness in modern Paris.”
