Whiplash in concert film
(re)discover Damien Chazelle's masterpiece on the big screen as you've never seen it before
Sunday 27
April 2025 - 17:00
Grand Theatre
After a “sold-out” first European tour, WHIPLASH’s cine-concert will visit Lyon, Nantes and Lille in April 2025!
Immerse yourself in the sometimes merciless world of a New York jazz school, and (re)discover Damien Chazelle’s masterpiece on the big screen as you’ve never seen it before! For almost two hours, Justin Hurwitz’s original soundtrack will be performed live and in perfect synchronization with the film’s projection (VOSTFR) by Benoît Sourisse and André Charlier’s Multiquarium Big Band.
Like Andrew (Miles Teller), a promising young drummer in search of perfection, who must face the incessant criticism of his teacher Mr. Fletcher (J.K. Simmons), André Charlier will take up the challenge of following every stick movement to perfection. A rhythmic and musical performance that brings the art of cine-concert to its apogee!
Film synopsis
Andrew, 19, dreams of becoming one of the best jazz drummers of his generation. But competition is fierce at the Manhattan Conservatory, where he trains relentlessly. His goal is to become a member of the top orchestra led by Terence Fletcher, a fierce and intractable teacher. When Fletcher finally spots him, Andrew embarks on a quest for excellence under his guidance…
