Trailer For ‘Blue Is the Warmest Colour’ Starring Léa Seydoux & Adèle Exarchopoulos
The first international trailer for Abdellatif Kechiche’s upcoming lesbian coming-of-age drama Blue is the Warmest Colour (La Vie d’Adèle – chapitre 1 & 2) has been released. The film wowed audiences at this year’s Cannes Film Festival and beat out the Coen Brothers’ Inside Llewyn Davis to take home the prestigious Palme d’Or. Loosely based on Julie Maroh’s graphic novel “Le Bleu Est une Couleur Chaude,” the film centers on a 15-year-old whose life is turned upside down when she meets Emma (Léa Seydoux), a blue-haired young woman, who allows her to discover desire and to assert herself as a woman and an adult.
The film will have its North American debut at the Toronto International Film Festival in September and will be released in theaters on October 25. Salim Kechiouche, Jeremie Laheurte, Catherine Salée, and Aurélien Recoing also star.
