First modification:
Tango embraces the most famous and dramatic love story in literature. A tango ‘Romeo and Juliet’ premiered in Paris. In our ‘Three minutes with’ we chat with Riad Sattouf, one of the most widely read French comic authors of the moment. In French cinema premieres, a bandit comedy: ‘The Innocent’, by Louis Garrel; and in the musical chronicle, we met the multifaceted Thérèse.
The best-known lovers of literature move from Verona to Buenos Aires. That’s what this free adaptation of ‘Romeo and Juliet’ with 10 passionate, festive and sensual tango dancers tells, which premiered in Paris, with a staging by the choreographer Francisco Leiva.
Romeo and Juliet meet and declare their love by dancing. In the leading roles, two dancers, not Argentines, but Greeks who fell in love with tango, Mariana Patsarika and Dimitris Biskas. The show mixes milonga, traditional tango and modern dance, accompanied by an original score for this show.
A comic book author who seduces children and adults
Riad Sattouf is the father of ‘The Arab of the Future’, a comic translated into several languages, but he is also a filmmaker. We took them to spend three minutes with him, hand in hand with Melissa Barra.
Born in Paris to a Syrian father and a French mother, Sattouf grew up in Libya, Syria and then Brittany, France. An experience that led him to publish the comic series ‘The Arab of the Future’. But the theme that he has explored the most in his comedies and comics is childhood and adolescence. This is the case of the series ‘Esther’s notebooks’ or his tape ‘Les Beaux Gosses’.
‘The Innocent’ by Louis Garrel
‘The Innocent’ arrives in theaters, a film inspired by the youth of the actor and now film director Louis Garrel.
This comedy recounts the adventures of Abel, a boy who discovers that his mother is madly in love with a man who has just been released from prison. Together with his friend Clémence, Abel will try to protect his mother. The film is reminiscent of the mobster movies of the 70s, but with a touch of humor.

Louis Garrel stood behind and in front of the camera in this film presented at the last Cannes Film Festival.
Thérèse, a multifaceted artist
In the musical chronicle, we talk to a total artist, her name is Thérèse and she is a musician, stylist, model and activist. Her songs speak of inclusive feminism, the fight against discrimination or envy in the artistic world.
