On Monday, 16 November 2026, at 19:30, 'Mariage au goût d'orange' will be screened at the Teatro de la Laboral, featured in the Esbilla section of the 64th International Film Festival of Gijón / Xixón (FICX). This marks the third participation of director Christophe Honoré, known for his versatile career, at the festival. Following his previous works 'Métamorphoses' and 'Ma mère', he presents this nuptial whirlwind reminiscent of Robert Altman's 'A Wedding', yet infused with the dramatic weight typical of a Michael Cimino film. The narrative shifts between characters and stories as alcohol flows freely and emotions are unleashed.
Honoré crafts a vitriolic family portrait that embraces shifts in tone and chaos. Premiered within the Cannes Première section, the director of 'Sorry Angel' returns with a powerful work featuring a cast that includes Adèle Exarchopoulos ('Blue Is the Warmest Colour'), Vincent Lacoste ('The French Kissers'), Paul Kircher ('The Animal Kingdom'), and Malou Khebizi, who also appears in the festival with '15/18 (A Place to Heal)'.
