Le tout nouveau testament

So that the stories do not end with the breath of the stage, continue the theatrical experience at the cinema. In collaboration with the Rex Fribourg cinema, the Théâtre des Osses presents a cinematic work that resonates with the performances of the season. The subscription to the Théâtre des Osses acts as a key for the Cinéma Rex: it grants access to four films, with two screening dates to choose from.

The Brand New Testament

By Jaco van Dormael, 2014 (Fd version)

In this gem of Belgian cinema, featuring Benoît Poelvoorde among others, God lives in Brussels, tyrannical and disillusioned, until the day his daughter decides to rebel and reshuffle the cards. By hacking the established order, she offers humanity a new way to approach their destiny.

Both irreverent and profoundly humanistic, the film subverts religious codes to question freedom, the meaning of life, and our relationship with time. Blending quirky humour, visual poetry, and a tender gaze on humanity, it presents a fable that is as bold as it is exhilarating.
