Plot: A cinematic gamble without precedent, this ambitious project comprises three films, in three disparate genres, that provide not so much the same action from different perspectives, but rather, different pieces, consequences, and results of the combined actions of all the films. Structurally reminiscent in certain ways to Krzystzof Kieslowski's Three Colors Trilogy and Akira Kurosawa's Rashomon, (its literary inspiration was Lawrence Durrell's Alexandria Quartet) it takes the idea of ever-expanding narrative webs to an exciting new level. The first film is a fast-paced thriller, the second a romantic comedy, and the third a melodrama; each of the feature length films can be seen alone, but each feature narrative gaps that can only be filled by viewing the other films. Seen together they're a remarkably cohesive and satisfying achievement that has the effect of creating a fourth film that exists only in the viewer's mind. Director Lucas Belvaux himself plays one of the lead roles, accompanied brilliantly by Dominique Blanc, Catherine Frot, Ornella Muti, Gilbert Melki, and François MorelON THE RUN (CAVALE) - The first installment focuses its noir-thriller lens on Bruno, an extreme-left revolutionary who has escaped from prison and is looking to settle scores with old enemies.
