After 2 sellout screenings at the Melbourne International Film Festival and great reviews, Serge
Thomann is thrilled to announce that he is hosting a premiere of the new film ‘Monsieur Mayonnaise’ as a fundraiser for my Council election campaign.
As I am standing totally independently from any political parties or groups, I need to raise the money for my campaign myself.
Introduction by Santo Cilauro
Special guest appearance by Kate Ceberano AO
Special thank you to director Trevor Graham, producer Lisa Wang and cinematographer Jenni Meany for filming a great movie!
An incredible true tale of mayonnaise sandwiches, nazis and a hand-painted comic book!
Artist and filmmaker Philippe Mora (Mad Dog Morgan, MIFF 2015; Swastika, MIFF 1973) is producing a graphic novel about his late father, Georges, widely known in Melbourne as a beloved contemporary art patron and owner of bohemian eateries Mirka Café, Café Balzac and the Tolarno Restaurant and Galleries. Less known, however, is Georges’ astonishing history as part of the French resistance during World War II, his friendship with renowned mime Marcel Marceau (Philippe’s godfather), and how together they saved thousands of Jewish lives with a fiendishly simple trick involving baguettes and mayonnaise.
