Synopsis:

Christian is a divorced father who loves spending time with his two children. A respected curator at a contemporary art museum, he is also one of those people who drives an electric car and supports major humanitarian causes. He is preparing his next exhibition, entitled "The Square," which features an installation encouraging visitors to be altruistic and reminding them of their duty to their fellow human beings. But it is sometimes difficult to live in accordance with one's values: when Christian's cell phone is stolen, his reaction does not do him credit... At the same time, the museum's communications agency launches a surprising campaign for The Square: the reception is totally unexpected and plunges Christian into an existential crisis.

univerciné, the USMB cinema

The Univerciné association was founded in 1996 with the aim of promoting arthouse cinema and research. Since then, the Univerciné team has strived to fulfill this mission by offering the Chambéry public films, exclusively in their original version with subtitles, in a variety of genres (drama, comedy, cinema classics, fantasy, documentaries, etc.). In addition to its regular programming, Univerciné offers themed evenings and screenings followed by discussions with filmmakers and/or speakers.The University of Savoie Mont Blanc is the only university in France to have a cinema with commercial status, allowing it to show all films released nationally.
