GHOST TRAIL

Every Spring in New York City, Lincoln Center hosts Rendez-Vous with French Cinema. An eagerly awaited festival for lovers of French film. Of the films we saw, Jonathan Millet’s GHOST TRAIL, stood out as haunting, immersive, and truly memorable.  

 Millet has been a photojournalist and documentary filmmaker up till now, and this, his feature film debut, is a spy thriller, based entirely on true events.  The filmmaking is remarkable, visceral, suspenseful–  a political thriller that seethes with tension.  

 With a plot that recalls the best spy fiction of Graham Greene and John le Carre, GHOST TRAIL is that rare film that combines the thoughtfulness of an arthouse film with the dramatic tension of a Hollywood thriller.  

 Add extraordinary performances from Adam Bessa and Tawfeek Barhom, makes GHOST TRAIL something you won’t want to miss as it opens in theaters across the US.  

 Join us, “on the road” at Lincoln Center, as we sit down for a conversation with Johnathan Millet, in INSIDE THE ARTHOUSE, starting now.
