A VERY LONG ENGAGEMENT

Production Notes (includes Cast, Crew, Credits)

Synopsis
From the director and star of "Amelie" (Jean-Pierre Jeunet and Audrey Tautou) comes a very different love story: "A Very Long Engagement," based on the acclaimed novel by Sebastien Japrisot. Screenplay adaptation by Jean-Pierre Jeunet & Guillaume Laurant.

As World War I draws to an end, a young French woman's greatest fight is about to begin.

Mathilde receives word that her fiancé Manech is one of five soldiers who have been court-martialed and pushed out of an Allied trench into no-man's land... and almost certain death.

But if Manech were dead, Mathilde would know.

Summoning the courage, will and strength that only the heart can inspire, she embarks on an extraordinary journey to discover the fate of her lover.

What follows is an investigation into the absurdity of war, the beauty of hope and the tenacity of the human heart.

The film also stars Gaspard Ulliel, Jérôme Kircher, Dominique Bettenfeld, Jean Pierre Darroussin, Denis Lavant, Clovis Cornillac, Albert Dupontel, Chantal Neuwirth, Dominique Pinon, Marion Cotillard, André Dussollier, Ticky Holgado, Jodie Foster, Jean Paul Rouve, Julie Depardieu, Tcheky Karyo, Michel Vuillermoz, and Jean Claude Dreyfus.
