RENCONTRES DU TROISIÈME TYPE (CINÉMA EN PLEIN AIR)

Synopsis:
Steven Spielberg’s fifth feature film, made when he was just thirty-one years old, in which he displays his extraordinary talent as a storyteller. Aircraft lost during the Second World War found in Mexico, a cargo ship discovered stranded in the middle of the Gobi Desert, mysterious musical notes seemingly coming from the heavens, and François Truffaut as a humanist ambassador ready to meet extraterrestrials. Close Encounters of the Third Kind, or when science meets fantasy in a science-fiction film that borders on perfection. Cinema at its best!

Steven Spielberg, 1977. USA. 137 mins (director’s cut). Colour. DCP. Original version with French subtitles.
