Why watch this film?
Louis Garrel is one of the most recognizable faces of contemporary French cinema. In addition to starring in films like 'The Dreamers' and 'Adorable Women', the star is also a director - and it is precisely the director of 'La Croisade'. In this story, a couple (Garrel and Laetitia Casta) discovers that their 13-year-old son (Joseph Engel) is selling valuable family items to finance a secret ecological project in Africa. Thus, the comedy - which has a concise and direct script (only 67 minutes of projection - debates the future of our plan, but in an optimistic way and revealing, as the meme says, that "the base is strong".

A Faithful Man
This is the second feature film directed by French actor Louis Garrel (the first was 'Two Friends'). The movie is a short romantic comedy (about 1h15m), one of those perfect films to relax - even though it has some drama and irony. The story is about the misadventures of love, in true French style, and should also please fans of the cinema of the land of the croissant.
Two Friends
A movie about true friendship - one with mistakes, successes, missteps, sacrifices, laughter, and tears. It also draws attention to how fragile men can be, especially in the face of such strong female characters. For those looking for a drama with a sprinkle of comedy, or a comedy with a sprinkle of drama, it's a good choice.

Woody Woodpecker Goes to Camp
After getting kicked out of the forest, Woody thinks he’s found a forever home at Camp Woo Hoo — until an inspector threatens to shut down the camp.
Robot Dreams
Sometimes we get so carried away by the marketing power of studios like Disney Pixar, and we overlook other avenues for deep and powerful animated stories that don't need excessively complex plots to evoke emotions. Such is the case with Robot Dreams, a Hispanic-French production directed by Pablo Berger (2012’s Snow White), based on the eponymous graphic novel by Sara Varon. Set in New York during the 80s, the story follows Dog, whose solitary life leads him to buy a robot for companionship. Their friendship grows, but an unfortunate day at the beach forces them to separate and long for the day of their reunion. Virtually without dialogue, with vibrant animation and a captivating visual language, the film tells a simple yet profoundly moving story about (curiously) human relationships and the course they take despite (or because of) accidents, fortuitous circumstances, and uncontrollable events that happen throughout life.
Masha and the Bear: Twice the Fun
Masha leaves the forest in pursuit of an adventure in the city, where she encounters many unexpected situations and surprises while attending a wedding, and later seeks to do everything in her power to save Christmas.
