French comedy with heart, humor, and film forum atmosphere
On June 26, 2026, the filmforum Duisburg will screen Couscous and Secrets, a warm-hearted culture-clash comedy. The film starts at 16:00 and combines family history, love entanglements, and culinary fantasy into a cinematic experience that is both light and moving.
A film full of taste, feeling, and conflict
At the center of the story is young Algerian cook Mehdi, played by Younès Boucif, who spends his days in the kitchen and navigates between girlfriend, mother, and tradition at night. The film draws its energy from this tension: from finely set punchlines, emotional closeness, and that special mix that makes good arthouse cinema so powerful in a community cinema setting.
Why this cinema date fits the program
The filmforum Duisburg is regarded as Germany's first community cinema, providing an atmosphere reminiscent of a 1950s film palace, making it the perfect backdrop for cinematic art beyond the mainstream. Here, cutting-edge media technology meets historical cinema culture, creating a particularly intense event experience for film-loving visitors and culture fans.

The screening will take place at filmforum, Dellplatz 16 in Duisburg. The location is centrally accessible, with numerous parking spaces available around Dellplatz; these are free to use after 20:00. Those traveling by public transport benefit from the central urban location and the short distance from Friedrich-Wilhelm-Platz.
