Carolina and Robin discuss Cleo from 5 to 7, an outrageously French film about a young woman who may or may not be terminally ill in 1950s Paris. While she waits for her diagnosis, she discovers who she is and her place in the world, politics and all.Politics include: the beret-wearing, tarot-reading difficulties of being a beautiful woman in Paris, how the war lingers in even the most gentle of French New Wave films, and how everything connects to the modern French far right.If you like what you hear, please rate and subscribe to the show wherever you're listening, it will help others find the pod.You can now follow us on: Instagram @ministryoffilmpod Bluesky @ministryoffilmpod.bskyb.social
