9.00 pm — Screening of the film La Dame de Pique (1986, 23 min)

Directed by Patricia Plattner, this film portrays a Russian prince exiled on the shores of Lake Geneva, living in nostalgia for a lost country and a bygone era. Now poor and alone, he gradually parts with his family possessions through dealings with an obsequious, aesthete antique dealer. With the prince’s death, a world collapses — not necessarily the one we expect.

Screening on the first floor of the Maison St-Gervais. Free admission, subject to availability.
