OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk

With Paul Kircher, Angelina Woreth, Ludivine Sagnier.
August 1992. A sweltering afternoon in a forgotten valley of Eastern France, marked by its silent blast furnaces and its lake. Fourteen-year-old Anthony and his cousin try to escape their boredom by the water, where they meet Steph and Clem. For Anthony, this will become the summer of first love—the kind that defines everything. A bittersweet turning point, marking both the end of childhood and the beginning of adulthood.
But there is also Hacine, a restless rebel from the neighborhood. And a stolen motorcycle that will upend Anthony’s world.
Over the course of four decisive summers, the lives of Anthony, Steph, and Hacine will intersect, collide, and intertwine. Amid the chaos, love will struggle to find its way…
Adapted from the eponymous novel by Nicolas Mathieu.
