Jenna Suru welcomes at the Paris International Film Festival, the filmmakers of The Big Kitty: PIFF 2021 winner of Best Experimental Feature. This film is a truly classic homage to 1940s cinema, but with the affectionate silliness of more recent contemporary comedies.   

A Russian Princess is the cat’s beloved owner – and around said cat’s neck is a beautiful jewel. However, diamonds are not only a girl – or woman’s – best friend – and sure enough, the lights are pulled during a cabaret performance and the cat disappears. Enter a private detective hired by the Princess to seek out the culprits – and inevitably the trail will lead to all manner of escapades – and all manner of individuals determined to keep the detective in the dark and grey corners of the City, where anything can happen – and nothing is what it seems in this…..
