About this event

In 1930s Paris, aspiring actress Madeleine (Nadia Tereszkiewicz) is accused of murdering a lecherous producer. Seeing an opportunity for her to finally find fame, she and her lawyer friend Pauline (come up with a scheme - she will plead guilty!

All goes to plan - Madeleine is acquitted on the grounds of self-defence, and she and Pauline start a new life filled with celebrity and wealth. But then the real murderer comes forward…

Featuring well-known French stars Isabelle Huppert, Fabrice Luchini and Dany Boon, alongside relative newcomers Tereszkiewicz and Marder, all of whom are clearly enjoying themselves, this latest from François Ozon (Frantz, Everything Went Fine, 8 Women) is a fun, period caper, but with a sly feminist bite.

Readers are advised to check with the venue before relying on the details published here.
