It’s summer time and with it comes lots of French people, live action anime, beautiful documentaries, college kids doing what they do, screechy high school girls, fighting pandas and much much more. Excited? I know I am.

One for the art house scene, (pending an over-blown Hollywood remake starring oh, I dunno- Morgan Freeman and Thandie Newton) the absorbing The First Grader is making waves amongst the limited release crowd and gaining teary-eyed buzz on this year’s festival circuit.
