# Event Details

- **Event Name**: LFF at QFT: The Debut
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 18 Oct, 2026 at 08:30 pm
- **Event Description**: The Debut is an elegant and intelligent coming-of-older-age story about how it’s never too late to find our true selves, and the redemptive powers of community and art. Take your seats... It’s showtime!

Quiet housewife Mona (Julianne Moore) has become a supporting role in her own life; her husband barely acknowledges her presence and their children are on the cusp of fleeing the nest. So when, on an impulse, she auditions for a local production of an original musical, Mona suddenly finds herself in the spotlight when she is cast in a leading role, as Miss Danielle. However, she is unprepared for the theatrical hurricane that is Jerry, her enigmatic director and the ‘biggest name in New Jersey community theatre’.

The Debut is both sparklingly witty and laugh-out-loud funny, while every scene works to build on the emotional undercurrents and heartbreaking revelations that make the characters so credible. This time, Eisenberg’s (A Real Pain) talents even stretch to writing the songs for the fictional stage musical. Moore is in her element, giving one of her finest performances, while Paul Giamatti’s Jerry continues his run from The Holdovers as the master of dramedy.

Presented as part of the 70th BFI London Film Festival.
