Our French Film Project this year takes a very different turn with this surreal and wacky animation. Based on the Belgian animated cult TV series of the same name, it follows three plastic toys, Cowboy, Indian and Horse, who all share a house in a rural town where nothing is ever quite normal. On Horse’s birthday, Cowboy and Indian’s plan to give him a barbeque backfires spectacularly when they accidentally buy 50 million bricks. This starts off a hilarious chain of events: first the house gets destroyed under the weight of the bricks and then the new walls they build mysteriously disappear. In search of the thieves, the trio travel to the centre of the earth, trek across frozen tundra and discover a parallel underwater universe. A French film like none you will have seen before! €5 – Must Pre-Book on 066 712 9934

Actor Diego Luna’s (Rudi y Cursi) accomplished debut feature is an unusual tale of family dynamics and patriarchy. Abel is a troubled nine-year-old boy who has suffered a breakdown and retreated into silence, apparently as a result of his father abandoning the family. When his mother Cecilia brings him home from the psychiatric ward, Abel begins inhabiting the persona of the absentee dad. The family plays along and bizarrely the charade works; Abel’s fear about his family is transformed and their desire for a father figure is satisfied. Luna expertly handles the subject matter and crafts an intriguing and humorous family drama. Must Pre-Book on 066 712 9934
