  • Summary

  • Just a Couple of Days (Quelques Jours Pas Plus) is a recent film by Julie Navarro which focuses on the plight of refugees in Paris as a romantic comedy unfolds in the background. A music journalist is assigned to cover "hard news" and ends up at a protest to keep the doors open at a refugee resource center. He meets the passionate Matilde, who he likes, and who convinces him to house a refuge for... "just a couple of days."

    The main character is played by Amruallah Safi. The actor was an Afghani asylum seeker who had never acted nor seen a film on the big screen. Manon Kerjean and ARBL Murray talk with Julie and Amruallah about how they managed to cross language barriers and make this film with an incredible cast including French cinema heavyweights Camille Cottin, and Benjamin Biolay.

    Julie Navarro is a seasoned Assistant director and Casting director, and this is her first feature film as Director.
