Following September’s sold-out screening of Minotaur, join us on Wednesday, October 7th for the next LuxFilmLab featuring an exclusive screening of LA GRADIVA by Marine Atlan.
Winner of the Grand Prix at the 2026 Cannes Critics’ Week, this striking debut feature from the French director stands out for its visual mastery.
Weaving together awakening desire, social friction, and the poetic silence of ancient ruins, Atlan delivers a deeply hypnotic and unforgettable cinematic experience.
A class of high school students travels to Pompeii to discover ruins and bodies petrified by Vesuvius. The trip becomes a rare moment when the force of youth meets a world frozen in time. Their desires start to surface with unexpected intensity, leading them toward an irreversible fracture.
About LuxFilmLab :
The first Wednesday of every month, LuxFilmLab – a joint initiative by Luxembourg City Film Festival and Kinepolis – highlights one feature film, chosen in cooperation by LuxFilmFest’s team and the Kinepolis programme team. A member of the Festival programming team introduces the special LuxFilmLab screenings, with the aim of supporting films whose release dates didn’t allow for them to be selected for the Festival itself but whose artistic qualities would very likely have led to their inclusion in the LuxFilmFest line-up.
*LuxFilmFest isn’t involved in the commercial aspects of these screenings. Access to the screenings and ticket prices are set by Kinepolis.
