Philadelphia Cinema Alliance (PCA), the nonprofit presenter of Philadelphia QFest, is continuing its year-round programming of La Cinematheque: New French Films, the once-a-month film series, beginning on March 11, with "Ricky", directed by Francois Ozon, mixing realism with fantasy, about a single mother factory worker, who has an affair with a collegaue, Paco. Once they give birth to their infant son, their lives dramatically change. A set of unusual circumstances that become the infant’s birthright lead to the exploration of whether he’s a freak of nature or a unique curiosity.
PCA has formed a dynamic partnership with The Prince Music Theater, the Embassy of France, and the French-American Cultural Foundation to present this year-round series.
