A PROPHET - (18)
2009 - 155 min  France  
The first unmissable film of 2010. From Jacques Audiard, the director of The Beat That My Heart Skipped, A Prophet is set to be one of the most electrifying, authentic and engaging films of the year. Malik (a marvellous performance from newcomer Tahar Rahim) is an uneducated Arab teenager stepping into a French prison after attacking a policeman. Once there, he’s at the mercy of his surroundings, but is taken in by Corsican kingpin Cesar Luchiani (a brilliant Niels Arestrup), who begins to use him for errands and murders, and who inadvertently starts Malik’s rise to power... ‘The film shows Audiard to be the biggest beast in new French cinema.’ The Guardian  
Directed by: Jacques Audiard  
Starring: Tahar Rahim, Niels Arestrup
