Why watch this film?
Isabelle Huppert doesn't mess around and in 'La daronne' it's no different. The brilliant French actress stands out in practically all her characters and this comedy is hilarious. Huppert leaves morality aside in this story, which follows a translator who works for the police and ends up getting involved with drug trafficking. This movie is politically incorrect in so many ways that it's wonderful. Can we agree that in comedy almost anything goes? Director Jean-Paul Salomé certainly took this seriously and didn't spare any criticism of society and stereotypes. 'La daronne' is a production that isn't taken seriously and to be enjoyed, it requires viewers to embark on this journey.

Playing Dead
The movie takes a meta-linguistic start - a movie about the making of a movie - to introduce Jean Renault, an actor who can no longer get big roles in TV and cinema. From there, it builds a surreal story, full of humor and mystery, with a good dash of Agatha Christie. Nearly complete entertainment.
The Sitting Duck
Winner of the Best Movie award at the Venice Horizons showcase in 2022, 'A Sindicalista' is an absolute must-watch for those seeking a great drama and suspense based on a true story. Directed by Jean-Paul Salomé, the feature film tells the story of Maureen Kearney, a brave union representative who exposed secret deals in the French nuclear industry. Isabelle Huppert's unparalleled performance stands out in the film, which also exposes how women are often discredited by society and justice when they report and denounce the violence they suffer.
