Bastille day
Ciné-club with Champagne to celebrate La Fête Nationale
FREE FOR MEMBERS ( scroll all the way down for info) "Let them eat cake" is the most famous quote attributed to Marie-Antoinette, the Queen of France during the French Revolution. The story goes that this was the queen's response when she was told that her starving peasant subjects had no bread. As cake is more expensive than bread, this anecdote has been cited as an example of Marie Antoinette's indifference to the conditions and daily lives of ordinary people. But did she really say these words? ...(Britannica.com) Read and watch this article and short videos to let you meditate, but above all let yourself be tempted... The Alliance will offer a small glass of bubbles (Champagne), and some small things to eat, and we took Marie-Antoinette's recommendation very seriously...we are going to have a revolutionary cake!
