The French film Declaration of War was chosen as the opening night film at this year's Critics Week at the Cannes Film Festival. This exuberant and deeply moving film follows a new couple, Romeo and Juliette, who must face the ultimate test when they discover their new born child is very ill. Gathering their friends and family together, they confront the ordeal together as a form of warfare. Donzelli infuses the story with unexpected verve using a host of cinematic techniques, music and heartbreaking performances that results in a film about a contemporary couple who surprises even themselves with their ability to fight not only for the life of their child, but for each other.
