A Secret (Un Secret)

By popular demand, The Boston Jewish Film Festival and The Museum of Fine Arts bring back "A Secret" A Secret (Un Secret) by Claude Miller (France, 2007, 105 min.). Adapted from Philippe Grimbert’s best-selling novel, A Secret is a story of passion and guilt in troubled times, which unfolds as a young teenager uncovers the truth about his parents’ past.

He finds out that before the war, his father Maxime (Patrick Bruel, The Comedy of Power and O Jerusalem) was married to Hannah (Ludivine Sagnier, 8 Women, Swimming Pool, A Girl Cut in Two, and Love Songs) when he fell madly in love with Tania (Cécile de France, The Russian Dolls and Avenue Montaigne). As a young Jewish couple living in Nazi-occupied France, Maxime and Tania had to make difficult choices to survive the war and the Holocaust. A Secret “is a fine drama that stands as Gallic vet Claude Miller’s best in at least a decade” (Variety). Co-presented by the Boston Jewish Film Festival.
