Get (re)acquainted with AMÉLIE as Jean-Pierre Jeunet’s Parisian classic returns to cinemas for its 25th anniversary. 23-year-old Amélie is lonely. After an isolating childhood, she moves to Paris and becomes a waitress at the Cafés des Deux Moulins, a bar restaurant filled with a colourful cast of diners and employees. One night, Amélie happens across a box of treasures hidden in her apartment, left by a little boy in the Fifties, that changes the course of her life. Henceforth, she dedicates herself to giving back to her community, tracking down the owner of these keepsakes, consoling a widowed neighbour and befriending a reclusive artist. When completing these good deeds, she crosses paths with Nino, a photobooth collagist who shares her oddball sensibilities. She quickly falls in love with him. AMÉLIE contains a sequence of flashing lights, which might affect viewers with photosensitive epilepsy.
