Augusta Opening Night
Walk Augusta’s Opening Night Blue Carpet ahead of an exclusive screening of a classic French feature film, Belle de Jour.
The festival kicks off in Augusta with delicious canapés and a glass of Forester Estate wine served prior to the film screening at the town’s wonderfully welcoming Augusta Resource Centre.
Synopsis:
Belle de Jour is an adaptation of the novel by Joseph Kessel. Screen icon, Catherin Deneuve, plays Séverigne, the glacially beautiful, sexually unfulfilled wife of a surgeon, whose blood runs icy with ennui until she takes a day-job in a brothel. There she meets a charismatic but sinister young gangster and ignites an obsession that will court peril.
