My Sailor, My Love
Irish Cinema

As part of our St Patrick's Day festival, the CCI is teaming up with Irish Tourism to bring you four recent films and documentaries reflecting the richness and diversity of Irish cinema. Both feature films screened on 12 March at Les 3 Luxembourg (67, rue Monsieur le Prince, Paris 6e) were included in the Dinard British Film Festival's "Irish Eyes" selection.

Annie, a carer, is hired by Grace to look after her father Howard with whom she has a strained relationship. A retired sailor who lives alone by the sea, Howard is a stubborn recluse who rejects Anne's company before slowly opening his heart to her... James Cosmo and Bríd Brennan head up this drama by Finnish director Klaus Härö which was named Best Irish Film at the Dublin International Film Festival 2023. A gentle love story imbued with nostalgia and humanity.
