In presence of Noémie Merlant, Saturday November 2.
In stifling Marseilles, Ruby, Nicole and Élise watch from their balcony as their neighbor across the street comes over. One troubling evening later, their lives are turned upside down… Free and funny!
A versatile actress who never hesitates to step out of her comfort zone, Noémie Merlant is now also a director to be reckoned with! Yesterday striking in front of Céline Sciamma's camera, she now signs her screenplay in collaboration with Sciamma, completing an audacious, biting second feature. Through the extravagant portrait of three friends whose thirst for freedom runs up against many obstacles, the artist dares to mix cinematographic genres and breaks free of norms to expose sorority, violence and injustice against women in a new way. Welcome to an unrestrained, no-holds-barred session, somewhere between light-hearted comedy and recreational horror.
