Wed Oct 22, 7:00 PM
Lamakaan
Every Wednesday, Lamakaan transforms into a portal to the cinematic worlds of Jacques Annaud, the acclaimed French filmmaker born on 1 October 1943 in Juvisy-sur-Orge, France. Known for his sweeping narratives and anthropological depth, Annaud’s films traverse time, terrain, and the human spirit. This weekly festival showcases his most iconic works—from prehistoric odysseys to spiritual awakenings—each film a masterclass in visual storytelling and cultural immersion. Whether you're a film student, history buff, or simply a lover of bold cinema, Annaud’s lens offers something unforgettable.
