This magical film follows the adventures of a mischievous boy and his schoolmates, teacher, and parents in Paris in the 1960s. Said Jury Chair and Variety’s Chief Film Critic, Peter Debruge, “Co-directors Amandine Fredon and Benjamin Massoubre have crafted a wonderful hand-drawn tribute to French cartoonists René Goscinny and Jean-Jacques Sempé. By adapting the duo’s distinctive style to animation, they have not only brought these beloved characters to life but also revealed the lesser-known lives of the artists responsible for their creation.” Charades is handling international sales.

Oscar-nominated director Nora Twomey returned to AIF this year with her second film, MY FATHER’S DRAGON, where it made its North American Premiere.

Henry Cavill Confirms “I Am Back as Superman”

Henry Cavill has confirmed in a social media post today that he is returning as Superman. This following his cameo at the end of the new Warner Bros-DC “Black Adam.”

Cavil posted, “I wanted to make it official: I am back as Superman…Thank you for your support and thank you for your patience. I promise it will be rewarded.”

“A very small taste of what’s to come, my friends. The dawn of hope renewed. Thank you for your patience, it will be rewarded,” the actor posted on Instagram.

Cavill first played the role of Superman in 2013’s Man of Steel. This was followed by the character’s return in two follow-up films (2016), Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and 2017’s Justice League (2017). However, there is some indication that his return may not follow these versions of the character. In “Black Adam” he walked out to the classic Superman theme and not the Hans Zimmer theme created for “Man of Steel.”

Cavill also plays Geralt in Netflix’s fantasy series The Witcher, and as Sherlock Holmes opposite Millie Bobby Brown in the Enola Holmes films.
