SIFF 2023 Green Carpet*: Little Nicholas

*Green Carpet Event on 25/10 & Regular Screening on 26/10* Somewhere between Montmartre and Saint-Germain-des-Prés, Jean-Jacques Sempé and René Goscinny lean over a large white sheet of paper and bring to life a mischievous and endearing boy, Little Nicholas. From schoolyard games and fights to summer camp prank and camaraderie, Nicholas lives a merry and enriching childhood. As the adventures of Nicholas and his friends unfold, the boy makes his way into his creators’ workshop. Sempé and Goscinny will recount the story of their friendship, career, and reveal a childhood filled with hopes and dreams.
