The fifth film in the ongoing Visalia Independent Film Series is the 2013 Academy Award Winner for Best Foreign Language Film, “Amour”.
“Amour” is a story about an elderly couple, where one of whom suffers from a stroke. She then undergoes surgery to unblock a carotid artery, which only serves to paralyze her.

The film is directed by Michael Haneke (Funny Games) and stars Jean-Louis Trintignant, Emmanuelle Riva, and Isabelle Huppert.
The film currently holds a 94 average on Metacritic and a 93% “Certified Fresh” on Rotten Tomatoes. You can expect a review day of release in the Visalia Times-Delta.
