* Les Courageux/The Courageous at Zurich Film Festival 2024 *

In October's Gimme a Beat, I reviewed the 20th edition of Zurich Film Festival.

As many of the listeners of Gimme a Beat know, I have been exploring the female factor of the Zurich Film Festival for several years now. In 2024, similar to 2023, I had a chance to get together with so many female filmmakers and actresses that I decided to (again) breakdown my review of the ZFF into several shows. Since I am adapting the timing of the shows to Swiss(-German) screenings of movies, and most of them are happening this year, more shows are coming.

I saw almost 35 movies, so I will not be able to review all of them, instead, I am focusing on the highlights only. To find them, you should follow the search with the following hashtags: #zff #zff2024 #highlight #gimmeabeat.

In tonight's Gimme A Beat, I will be focusing on Les Courageux / The Courageous, the movie directed and co-written by Jasmin Gordon. The movie is already playing in the Swiss-French cinemas, and it is coming to Swiss-German cinemas (RiffRaff/Houdini) on March 9th, with a special screening.

I had the pleasure of getting together with Jasmin a few months after I saw the movie. We talked about what compelled her to tell this story, its unexpected impact on audiences, and the challenges and rewards of bringing it to life. We also discussed what it means for an artist like Jasmin, who lives and breathes her craft, to receive awards as recognition.
