(Jean-Jacques Beineix, France 1982, 123 min.)

Young French music lover Jules (Frédéric Andrei) finds himself in the possession of rare tapes by an American opera star (Wilhelmenia Fernandez) who refuses to be recorded. Then all hell breaks loose, and soon he is pursued by two gruesome thugs on a hair-raising moped and car chase through the Paris Métro. Helped by an eccentric assortment of friends, Jules tries to figure out the reasons behind his predicament. Maybe the most stylish and influential French movie of the last 30 years, Diva is a true feast for the senses.
