Celebrating the tenth anniversary of the film’s release in the UK, Waltham Forest Cinema Project is proud to present Mia Hansen-Løve’s euphoric tale of a life lived on the dance floor, Eden. We will show her iconic breakthrough film and then hit the decks with a DJ set of the finest in French Touch and French House until closing.
Paul (Félix de Givry) is a music mad Paris club kid, sneaking out of his mother’s house to go to all night raves. Setting up his own club night with a friend, he finds himself riding high with newcomers Daft Punk, DJing in New York and meeting his house music heroes. But as the years pass, and his friends aren’t to be found on the dance floor, the music fades down and reality must be faced.
A goldmine of developing talent – with everyone from Greta Gerwig to Golshifteh Farahani to Brady Corbet making appearances – and an essential film from one of world cinema’s current greats Mia Hansen-Løve (Things to Come, Bergman Island), Eden is an anthemic ode to the highs and lows of late nights with a truly unforgettable soundtrack.
We're delighted to be travelling to Walthamstow's iconic Trades Hall for this screening.
