5 things to do: Catch the film 3 Hearts or visit the BurJuman Centre’s Flower Power Fest



Catch the movie 3 Hearts by Benoit Jacquot. Set in a French provincial town, the film follows Marc, who encounters Sylvie one night when he misses his train back to Paris. After an evening of conversation, Marc catches the first train the next day, but not before asking Sylvie to come and meet him a few days later. When the two miss one another, Marc tries to find Sylvie, only to encounter yet another woman — Sophie, who he is unaware is Sylvie's sister. French with English subtitles.
