French director Christophe Honore’s film “On a Magical Night” is currently featured as a part of Enzian Theater’s streaming service.
“On a Magical Night” follows the story of Maria, a married woman who spends the night in a hotel room after getting into an argument with her husband. While in the hotel room, she gains a “bird’s eye view of her apartment, her husband and her marriage,” prompting her to reflect on her past and the various ways her life could have turned out.
Honore is openly gay and some of his past films – “Girls Can’t Swim” and “Seventeen Times Cecile Cassard” – have explored the portrayal of LGBTQ sexuality.
