SCAD Cinema Circle: The Umbrellas of Cherbourg

Step into a world where love is sung, heartache is painted in pastels, and rain falls like poetry. Jacques Demy’s luminous masterpiece, The Umbrellas of Cherbourg, is more than a film—it’s a symphony of longing. Winner of the Palme d'Or and Best Actress award at Cannes and garnering five Oscar nominations, this glorious confection of romanticism follows Catherine Deneuve’s radiant Geneviève, a young woman swept up in first love with Guy, a charming mechanic played by Nino Castelnuovo. One of the most beloved and unorthodox movie musicals of all time.
