La Fille qu’on appelle
Who knew that a tale about a ski instructor and favored skier narrative that teeters into power-struggle and examines sexual exploitation would be such a stellar debut. Unfortunately, Charlène Favier didn’t get to have an in-person premiere but nonetheless 2020’s Slalom (Cannes Label) played especially well internationally. The French filmmaker moved into her sophomore feature this past July in Marseille on a project based on Tanguy Viel’s novel of the same name. Alba Gaïa Bellugi (Fabrice Du Welz’s Inexorable) toplines La Fille qu’on appelle, and Jean-Pierre Martins, Pascal Gregory and Anne Suarez co-star.
Gist: When he is not in a boxing ring, Max Le Corre is a driver for the mayor of the city. Above all, he is Laura’s father who, at the age of twenty, decided to come back and live with him. So Max thought it would be a good idea if the mayor could help him find a place to live.
Release Date/Prediction: This could nab a spot just about anywhere on the Croisette but we believe this might be heading to the Un Certain Regard section.
