The French Cultural Center in Erbil, Institut Français, organizes a "Mercredi Cinema," (Wednesday Cinema) each week.

 

This week (Wednesday, February 1), the 1994 released French movie "Un Indien Dans La Ville" (An Indian in the City) will be shown.

 

The story starts with Steph, a broker living in Paris, who wants a divorce from his wife Patricia to marry another woman: Charlotte. However, Patricia has been living among the Venezuelan Amazonas Indians for the past 13 years, so Steph travels to the Indian village to meet her and ask her to sign the divorce papers.

 

When they meet, Patricia tells Steph that they have a teenage son, Mimi-Siku, who has been raised as an Amazonas Indian. Patricia tells Steph she will not sign the divorce papers unless Steph takes Mimi-Siku on a visit to Paris, which he agrees to. In Paris, Mimi-Siku meets the children of Steph's colleague Richard and falls in love with his daughter Sophie.
