Les Cyclades
French comedy about two former best friends who make the trip to Greece that they dreamed of as teenagers. However, the reunion does not go as planned.
An entertaining crowd-pleaser about estranged childhood friends who reunite for a trip to the Greek Islands. Recently divorced, and watching helplessly as her only son leaves home, Blandine is struggling to find her footing again. So when her former best friend Magalie, loud and fearless, suddenly resurfaces, she allows herself to be spontaneous for a change. The two will take the trip they always dreamed of as teenagers, to the amazing island of Amorgos. But as they head off towards their destination, it soon becomes apparent that Magalie’s very different approach to holidaying – and to life – could lead Blandine to her breaking point… and beyond.
LES CYCLADES is a breezily delightful tale of female camaraderie, stoked by laughter, tears and, of course, great scenery. The roles of the reserved Blandine and the loquacious Magalie are tailor-made for Olivia Côte and Laure Calamy.
