‘The Unknown Girl’ opens at Cinema Art Theater Oct. 20
Starting Friday, Oct. 20, the Rehoboth Beach Film Society's Cinema Art Theater will present “The Unknown Girl,” a drama about a young doctor's guilt-ridden search for the identity of a woman murdered near her clinic.
The new film from acclaimed directors the Dardenne brothers is a searing saga of guilt and redemption. One evening after work hours, Jenny (Adèle Haenel), a young doctor, allows the door buzzer at the small clinic where she works to go unanswered. Only later does she learn that the person ringing was an unidentified African woman found dead shortly after by the side of a road. Consumed by the thought that she is to blame, Jenny embarks on an obsessive crusade to discover who the anonymous woman was and to see to it that she is not forgotten. Shot through with low-key suspense and the heart-stopping realism that has become the directors' trademark, “The Unknown Girl” is both a gripping mystery and a profoundly human moral tale.
Screening times are 7 p.m., Friday, Oct. 20; 4 p.m., Saturday and Sunday, Oct. 21 and 22; 7 p.m., Monday, Oct. 23; 4 and 7 p.m., Wednesday, Oct. 25; and 4 p.m., Thursday, Oct. 26. Tickets can be purchased at the Cinema Art Theater, starting 30 minutes prior to each screening. Admission for a screening is $8 for RBFS members and $10 for nonmembers. All screenings are held at the Cinema Art Theater located at 17701 Dartmouth Drive in Dartmouth Plaza, behind the Lewes Wawa.
