The Lumière Cinemas and Alliance Française Christchurch will screen their first 2026 film on the 23rd of February. A family-friendly comedy that will amaze you and make you laugh! 

Cleopatra, queen of Egypt, believes she can build a temple in record time and makes a bet with Julius Caesar. Her architect, however, needs the help of Asterix and Obelix to fight Romans who try to stop the construction. Considered by many as the best live-action Asterix & Obelix movie, it still holds up to this title nearly 25 years after! 

How can we talk about France without speaking of Asterix & Obelix? These Gaulish madmen are one of the most recognizable duo in fiction. In this movie, Alain Chabat elevates the already legendary comic "Asterix & Obelix: mission Cleopatra" from 1965. He fills this film with gags, references, stunning decors and screening while the top tier cast blows our mind. Be prepared for a wonderful trip to Egypt and a voyage into french popular culture!
