RESCHEDULED: Outdoor screening of MAUVAIS SANG has been rescheduled to Saturday, June 24 at 8:30pm at Transmitter Park, Brooklyn (Greenpoint Avenue).

From her castle, young Sophie can't resist the temptation of the forbidden and what she loves most of all is to get up to no-good with her cousin Paul. When her parents decide to go to Amercia, Sophie is delighted. A year later, she's back in France with her horrible stepmother, Madame Fichini. But Sophie will be able to count on her two friends, model little girls, and their mother, Madame de Fleurville to escape from her stepmother's clutches.

Considered something of a curiosity in the oeuvre of French filmmaker Max Ophüls, Yoshiwara is the story of a love triangle between a geisha, a Russian military officer and a family servant. An intriguing example of France’s fascination with Japanese culture in the early 20th century – which also led to a craze for Utamaro’s work – this rarely screened classic also features the romantic themes and visual splendor of Ophuls’ better-known works.
