The Big Blue
Star cinemas
By Luc Besson (France / Italy, 1988, 2h19), original version, age 12 and up
Two children’s rivalry in the Greek sea continues into adulthood. Who will dive the deepest and the farthest? Le Grand Bleu traces their loves and friendships, with humans and with dolphins, in pursuit of an unattainable dream.
Freely inspired by the lives of Jacques Mayol and Enzo Maiorca, champion freedivers, as well as Luc Besson’s own life, this is a cult intergenerational work to be (re)discovered on the big screen.
