Farewell, Mr Haffmann preview
Based on Jean-Philippe Daguerre’s celebrated, multi Molière Award-winning play, Farewell, Mr Haffmann follows jeweller Joseph Haffmann. After making the difficult choice to escape a German-occupied Paris, he leaves his business to his assistant François Mercier; an arrangement that would later prove to be a lethal mistake.
Mercier’s wife, Blanche, has her doubts about the whole plan, calling it a risky proposition. Her husband, who wants to shine as a jeweller, convinces her otherwise and they soon move into the Haffmann home. Now controlled by an agreement that eventually becomes a Faustian pact, the lives of everyone involved are changed forever.
From French writer-director Fred Cavayé, Farewell, Mr Haffmann masterfully guides audiences through the dangerous world of its characters, the utmost intensity of some of its best scenes more than enough to make you groan in agonising anticipation. It’s a compelling story that explores moral complexity and empathy, making Farewell, Mr. Haffmann an immersive, big-screen adult entertainment that needs experiencing.
