Pressentiment, Le (The Premonition)

A FILM BY Jean-Pierre Darroussin

An intriguing and subtly compelling character study of a lawyer battling against the odds in a tough Paris neighbourhood.

...strong performances, especially from co-writer Valérie Stroh as a mercurial neighbourhood mother.
-Malcolm Fraser, THE MONTREAL MIRROR
The absence of wrong notes makes the film remarkable, and very satisfying, as does the detailed use of the Parisian city-scape. Highly recommended for film societies.
-John Salisbury, THE BRITISH FEDERATION OF FILM, SOCIETIES
