A Love to Hide (Un amour à taire) Directed By: Christian Faure, SCR: Pascal Fontanille & Samantha Mazeras, France, 2005, video, subtitled, 102 min. Nazi-occupied Paris, 1942. By day, Jean’s family runs a thriving laundry. By night, he secretly trysts with Philippe, his underground-agent lover. When Jean’s Jewish childhood friend Sarah appears seeking shelter, the couple hides her from the Gestapo. For a brief time they live safely, but their world is shattered when Jean’s jealous black sheep of a brother sets off a spiral of heartbreaking events that ruptures the three friends’ precarious existence. César nominees Jérémie Renier (François Ozon’s CRIMINAL LOVERS) and Bruno Todeschini (Patrice Chéreau’s HIS BROTHER and THOSE WHO LOVE ME CAN TAKE THE TRAIN) lead a cast marked by impeccable performances in a powerful tale of wartime horror and forbidden love. Arguably the most compelling portrait of gay love in World War II Europe since AIMEE & JAGUAR, the film has won best narrative feature awards at the most recent Chicago, Washington, D.C., and Miami gay and lesbian film festivals. - JPK IMDB Film Info If this film sounds good, try these:  Rag Tag Like A Brother (Comme Un Frère) Amnesia- The James Brighton Enigma (Amnesie- L’enigme James Brighton) SPONSORED BY: Picture This!
