Sun 21 Mar, 2 pm. NR Based on a play by Jean-Marie Besset, The Girl on the Train is inspired by one of the most media-blitzed and polarizing events in recent French history: a young woman’s lie about being the victim of an anti-semitic attack on a Paris suburban train. Jobless, soul-searching, and rollerblading Jeanne lives in a Paris suburb with her widowed mother Louise, who makes a living as a baby-sitter. Louise helps her daughter get a job with her old flame Samuel Bleistein, now a famous lawyer and Jewish activist. When Jeanne’s budding relationship with aspiring wrestler Franck is shattered by a violent turn of events, Jeanne and Bleistein’s opposite worlds get set on a collision course, as the film becomes a complex psychological drama.
