The Triplets of Belleville (2017)

“[A] tour de force of ink-washed, crosshatched mischief, and unlikely sublimity.”—The New York Times

Experience the award-winning animation of a Cannes Film Festival darling on Macky Auditorium's big screen, complete with a live performance of the film's jazzy, swinging score by Le Terrible Orchestre de Belleville. This quirky, irresistible French film follows one woman on a citywide search for her missing grandson.
