AFS & Alamo present: CELINE AND JULIE GO BOATING

Cinema as pure magic! Jacques Rivette’s CELINE AND JULIE GO BOATING is a modern, hallucinatory fairy tale, a proverbial tumble down the rabbit hole of narrative filmmaking! With thanks to a magic sweet, the titular Celine and Julie move from their everyday world to a parallel world that is beyond all they can imagine – a mystical, magical place that is slightly reminiscent of, but not quite, their own. The result of this semi-improvisatory cinematic experiment is a hypnotic meta-filmic experience that must simply be seen to be believed.

In partnership with the Austin Film Society, the Alamo Drafthouse Cinema is proud to present this brand new 35mm print of Jacques Rivette’s CELINE AND JULIE GO BOATING! (Sam Prime)
