Twin Peaks: The Return

Twenty-five years later, David Lynch and his legendary TV series return, with a third 18 one-hour-episode season that raises the bar to an admirable level. Conceived as one very long film, it espouses a Proustian conception of time, an entire way of seeing the world, a deep dive into a glacial and nightmarish Universe filled with beautiful and humorous as well as pathetic moments.

LEFFEST will screen the first episode, which is composed of two one-hour parts.

Duration: 2
Production year: 2017

David Lynch

Born in Montana in 1946, the acclaimed screenwriter and filmmaker directed his first feature-length film, Eraserhead, in 1977, which quickly became a cult classic. He then continued his career writing and directing many features that have since become classics, amongst which Blue Velvet (1986) and Mulholland Dr. (2001). In television, he created the famous series Twin Peaks (1990-1991), one of his most remarkable works. Lynch remains one of the biggest living auteurs up to today, defying the medium’s convention through the original, the surreal, and the unexplainable. After the director attended the LEFFEST’07, the last edition of LEFFEST, in 2018, paid him an homage, screening many of his films and exhibiting his still photography work.
