Cine Verão shows the award-winning feature film directed by Jean-Pierre Jeunet
After leaving her family's suburban life, innocent Amélie (Audrey Tautou) moves to the Parisian neighborhood of Montmartre, where she starts working as a waitress.
One day he finds a box hidden in the bathroom of his house and, thinking it belonged to the former resident, he decides to look for it and that's how he finds Dominique (Maurice Bénichou).
Seeing that he cries with joy when he retrieves his object, the girl is impressed and acquires a new vision of the world. Then, from small gestures, she starts to help people around her, seeing in this a new meaning for her existence. However, she still misses a great love.
