Invitation to Diane Kurys
Lyonnaise Diane Kurys débuted as an actress before directing Peppermint Soda (Diabolo menthe) in 1977, which left a definite impression on audiences. She has since made thirteen films, some autobiographical, painting the emotion and morals of an era with sensitivity, as in C’est la vie or the superb Entre Nous, filmed in Lyon.
