Which Eric has an affair with Rebecca, their mutual friend.

Festivals:
- The Sarlat Film Festival, from November 5 to 9
Since its creation, the 33rd edition of the Sarlat Film Festival has welcomed high school students from all over France who have chosen an education related to cinema. It offers several selections: Official selection (including this year “Their children after them” by the Boukherma brothers at the opening of the festival, “Planète B” by Aude Léa Rapin, “Rabia” by Mareike Engelhardt or even “Les Reines du drama” by Alexis Langlois) but also Tour du Monde, Jeunes Regards, Jeune Audience, a selection of short films, a program around the Baccalaureate and special screenings. - The CLOSE-UP Paris Festival, from November 5 to 12
It is held in Paris, Greater Paris and throughout the Île de France, questioning the representation of the city and landscapes in cinema, and this year honors Matthew Porterfield, an American filmmaker whose films almost all take place in the neighborhood of Baltimore (Maryland) where he grew up, and thus occupy a unique place in the United States, both territorially and cinematographically. Neither fully urban nor fully suburban, they exist in a gray area, somewhere in between. On the programming side, some unmissable ones including “Architecton” by Victor Kossakovsky (which stood out, among others, at the last Berlinale), “Les Feux Sauvauges” by Jia Zhangke at the opening of the festival, “Le Système Victoria” by Sylvain Desclous in closing…
