Amélie
She’ll change your life.
Directed by Jean-Pierre Jeunet
Produced by Victoires Productions, Tapioca Films
A whimsical, visually enchanting love letter to Paris and human kindness, where a shy young woman discovers magic in small acts of generosity before learning to pursue her own happiness.
At a tiny Parisian café, the adorable yet painfully shy Amélie accidentally discovers a gift for helping others. Soon Amelie is spending her days as a matchmaker, guardian angel, and all-around do-gooder. But when she bumps into a handsome stranger, will she find the courage to become the star of her very own love story?
