FLACH FILM PRODUCTION, CB FILMS & ARTE FRANCE PRESENT CARLA BESNAÏNOU JULIA ARTAMONOV KÉRIAN MAYAN DAVID CHAUSSE ( LA BELLE ENDORMIE ) A FILM BY CATHERINE BREILLAT In a castle somewhere in a bygone age... The fairy Carabosse cuts the umbilical cord of a newborn babe, a little girl called Anastasia.Three young scatterbrained fairies appear, their cheeks red from running... Too late, says Carabosse, at sixteen the child’s hand will be pierced and she’ll die. The young fairies burst into tears! Their lateness didn’t deserve that. Now they must ward off the fatal curse... They just manage to predict that instead of dying, Anastasia will fall asleep for 100 years. Sleeping for a century is very boring, so they bestow on her the possibility of wandering far and wide in her dreams during those 100 years of sleep... Dans un Château quelque part dans un temps lointain. La fée Carabosse coupe le cordon ombilical d’un nouveau-né, une petite fille prénommée Anastasia. Trois jeunes fées écervelées surgissent, les joues rouges d’avoir couru... Trop tard, dit Carabosse, à l’âge de 16 ans, l’enfant se transpercera la main et mourra. Les jeunes fées éclatent en sanglots ! Leur retard ne méritait pas ça ! Maintenant il faut conjurer le funeste sort… Tout juste peuvent elles prédire qu’au lieu de mourir Anastasia tombera endormie pour 100 ans. Un siècle de sommeil c’est très ennuyeux, elles lui donnent donc le loisir de faire l’école buissonnière en rêve pendant ces 100 années de sommeil…. As opposed to «Bluebeard», I would like to deal with this tale, not as a Contrairement à Barbe Bleue, je voudrais traiter ce conte, non comme story that two little girls tell each other, but as the story of a little girl une histoire que se racontent deux petites filles mais comme l’histoire who is born into a world she has no clear idea of, and so fabricates a même d’une petite fille qui naît, elle ne sait pas encore dans quel monde, child’s world of her own. -

Abuse of Weakness
Strand Releasing presents ABUSE OF WEAKNESS A film by CATHERINE BREILLAT Starring Isabelle Huppert & Kool Shen Official Selection: Toronto International Film Festival COLCOA French Film Festival New York Film Festival Country of Origin: France / Germany / Belgium Format: DCP/2.35/Color Sound Format: Dolby SR Running Time: 104 minutes Genre: Drama Not Rated In French with English Subtitles National Press Contact: Jenna Martin / Marcus Hu Strand Releasing Phone: 310.836.7500 [email protected] [email protected] Please download photos from our website: http://extranet.strandreleasing.com/secure/login.aspx?username=PRESS&password=STRAND SYNOPSIS Inspired by director Catherine Breillat’s (FAT GIRL, ROMANCE) true life experiences, her latest film, ABUSE OF WEAKNESS, is an exploration of power and sex. Isabelle Huppert (THE PIANO TEACHER, 8 WOMEN) stars as Maud, a strong willed filmmaker who suffers a stroke. Bedridden, but determined to pursue her latest film project, she sees Vilko (Kool Shen), a con man who swindles celebrities, on a TV talk show. Interested in him for her new film, the two meet and Maud soon finds herself falling for Vilko's manipulative charm as their symbiotic relationship hurdles out of control. DIRECTOR’S NOTE Abuse of weakness is a criminal offense. I used it as the film’s title because I like the sound of it, but also because it has another meaning. Abuse of power. Yes, Maud has strength of character; paradoxically, it’s her weakness. Being an artist means also revealing one’s weaknesses to others. I would have preferred Maud not to be a film director and the story not to seem autobiographical, since even the spectator (at least in intimate movies, and mine are) looks at himself in a mirror. -
THE LAST MISTRESS (UNE VIEILLE MAÎTRESSE) a Film by Catherine Breillat
Presents THE LAST MISTRESS (UNE VIEILLE MAÎTRESSE) A Film by Catherine Breillat FILM FESTIVALS CANNES INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL 2007 TORONTO INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL 2007 NEW YORK FILM FESTIVAL 2007 CHICAGO INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL 2007 AFI FILM FESTIVAL 2007 SAN FRANCISCO FILM FESTIVAL 2008 – OPENING NIGHT (114 mins, France/Italy, 2007) Distribution Publicity Bonne Smith 1028 Queen Street West Star PR Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M6J 1H6 Tel: 416-488-4436 Tel: 416-516-9775 Fax: 416-516-0651 Fax: 416-488-8438 E-mail: [email protected] E-mail: [email protected] www.mongrelmedia.com High res stills may be downloaded from http://www.mongrelmedia.com/press.html SYNOPSIS THE LAST MISTRESS is a smoldering adaptation of Jules Barbey d’Aurevilly’s scandalous 19 th- century novel. Set during the reign of “citizen king” Louis Philippe, it chronicles the surprising betrothal of the aristocratic, handsome Ryno de Marigny (newcomer Fu-ad Aît Aattou) to Hermangarde (Roxane Mesquida of FAT GIRL), a young, beautiful and virginal aristocrat. Lurking in the margins – and in the imaginations of high society’s gossip-hounds – is de Marigny’s older, tempestuous lover of ten years, the feral La Vellini (Argento). Described as, “a capricious flamenca who can outstare the sun,” La Vellini still burns for de Marigny, and she will not go quietly. Though a fascinating departure into more traditional storytelling, THE LAST MISTRESS sees Breillat continuing her career-long interest in the ramifications of female desire, casting Argento as an impassioned independent woman for the ages, but it is also a surprisingly witty and touching – and needless to say sexily explicit - period drama that explores the age-old battle of the sexes. -

We were delighted to welcome the internationally acclaimed French filmmaker Catherine Breillat, who introduced a rare UK screening of her 1988 film 36 fillette / Virgin and delivered a public Q&A about her controversial explorations of female sexuality (Romance, Anatomy of Hell, Fat Girl, Brief Crossing). Catherine Breillat in conversation with Xavier Mendik and Kate Ince of B-Film.

CATHERINE BREILLAT, 1999) REVIEWS/INTERVIEWS from Radio National with Michael Cathcart
1 CMS 4320 Women and Film Bonner ROMANCE (CATHERINE BREILLAT, 1999) REVIEWS/INTERVIEWS from Radio National with Michael Cathcart [Transcript from broadcast interview on Australian Public Radio] Catherine Breillat is one of France most interesting female film makers and quite a phenomenon. She's a best selling French novelist as well as a film maker. Romance is her sixth and latest film and it reveals sexuality from a completely female point of view. A woman's account of her own feelings, it's an unflinching depiction of various sexual experiences. Marie, the heroine whose husband refuses to have sex with her, sets out on her own journey for sexual satisfaction - and transcendence. The film has been controversial since it was screened last year at European film festivals. Yet it's been released around the world... in Great Britain, Ireland, Turkey and New Zealand. And yes, it will be released soon in Australia although it nearly did not make it. The Office of Film and Literature Classification had refused to classify the film... Its potential Australian distributor, with the suitable ironic name of Potential Films, appealed the ban, which was overturned on the 28th of January 2000. Catherine Breillat spoke to Arts Today's Rhiannon Brown when she brought Romance here last year for the Melbourne Film Festival. Rhiannon Brown: The central character in your film Romance is Marie, a young woman outraged by a society where sex has always been male and romance has always been female. She's in a relationship with Paul, her model boyfriend, who won't make love to her preferring to hide himself amongst his crisp, white sheets watching gymnastics on the television. -
Catherine Breillat. Adolescencia, Subversión Y Ritos De Paso
Del 5 al 27 de febrero Catherine Breillat. Adolescencia, subversión y ritos de paso Los días 5 y 6 de febrero, Catherine Breillat estará disponible para entrevistas La Casa Encendida presenta a una de las directoras más prolija, controvertida y transgresora del cine francés con el ciclo “Catherine Breillat. Adolescencia, subversión y ritos de paso”, una oportunidad para descubrir una visión reveladora sobre el tránsito de la adolescencia femenina, los cambios corporales que acontecen, el despertar al deseo sexual, la pérdida de la virginidad y donde, en lo cotidiano, se insertan las fantasías eróticas. Catherine Breillat (Bressuire, Francia, 1948) tiene una larga y coherente trayectoria en el cine que dura más de cuarenta años. Fue tras el estreno de su polémica Romance (1999) – película con escenas de sexo real destinada al circuito comercial– cuando su nombre salió de los círculos de los expertos en cine y literatura para ocupar un lugar en el ámbito internacional. La visión de Breillat rompe con los estereotipos de género y los roles sexuales, contraviene a nivel visual los condicionamientos familiares y las normas sociales, y reconceptualiza las nociones de obscenidad, impureza, pornografía o abyección, en un posicionamiento donde, de nuevo, lo íntimo y lo personal es político. Su obra resulta tan controvertida y perturbadora por negarse a someter el cuerpo femenino al poder de la mirada masculina, dejando así que la mirada femenina construya. Cuestiona también que el deseo femenino no sea más que una respuesta al deseo del otro masculino. El ciclo se centra en cuatro de sus películas que tratan más de cerca el tema de la adolescencia femenina, momento de transformación física y psicológica y de iniciación a la sexualidad adulta, que la directora representa como un rito de paso, donde las heroínas se buscan a sí mismas y pasan por diferentes pruebas. -
THE SLEEPING BEAUTY from the Internationally Acclaimed Director of Bluebeard, the Last Mistress, Fat Girl, Romance, Sex Is Comedy, and Anatomy of Hell
FOR MORE INFORMATION: FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Samantha Klinger - 310.836.7500 Street Date - November 8, 2011 [email protected] Pre-Book Date - October 11, 2011 THE SLEEPING BEAUTY From the internationally acclaimed director of Bluebeard, The Last Mistress, Fat Girl, Romance, Sex Is Comedy, and Anatomy Of Hell On Tuesday, November 8, 2011 Strand Releasing proudly releases on DVD the latest of French provocateur Catherine Breillat's subverted fairytales, THE SLEEPING BEAUTY, a twisted retelling that ends far from "happily ever after". Starring Clara Besnaïnou, Julia Artamonov, Kerian Mayan, and David Chausse. Based on a tale by Charles Perrault, three fairies alter a curse on a young princess who is destined to die at an early age. Instead she embarks upon a hundred-year sleep, in which she is allowed to live a full and vivid life within her dreams. She experiences a sexual awakening that reshapes her view on Prince Charming when she has no clear perception of reality. Charles Perrault's Stories or Fairy Tales From Bygone Eras has drawn countless retellings in the form of animated films, ballets and children's books. BLUEBEARD was the first film Catherine Breillat deconstructed from one of his classic tales as THE SLEEPING BEAUTY is her second quintessential fairytale retold for adults and SNOW WHITE AND THE SEVEN DWARFS will be the final installment of her vision to the trilogy. Winner of the Art Cinema Award (C.I.A.E.) at the Venice International Film Festival. An Official Selection at the Rendez-Vous with French Cinema in New York, ColCoa (French Film Festival in Los Angeles), Toronto, and San Francisco International Film Festivals. -
Portrayal of the Disabled Body in Catherine Breillat's Abus
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by espace@Curtin ‘C’était moi mais ce n’était pas moi’: portrayal of the disabled body in Catherine Breillat’s Abus de faiblesse (2013) Kath Dooley [[email protected]] Department of Screen Arts, Curtin University, Kent St, Bentley WA 6102, Australia Writer/director Catherine Breillat's most recent film Abus de faiblesse (2013) explores an important moment of bodily transition: the change from able to disabled body. This semi-autobiographic film follows the story of film director, Maud (Breillat's alter ego), who forms a destructive relationship with a conman, Vilko, after she suffers a disabling stroke. This film shows consistency with Breillat's previous work in its exploration of the constructed nature of the female body onscreen. In the past the filmmaker has portrayed moments of trauma and transition (such as childbirth, loss of virginity or rape) to subvert processes of objectification. The article argues that Abus de faiblesse challenges and subverts representation of the post-menopausal and disabled body onscreen. The film interrogates binary oppositions such as able/disabled and independence/dependency to challenge representations of the disabled body as 'other'. With reference to scholarly work on disability (Mitchell and Snyder 2006) and the aging female body (Markson 2003; Ussher 2006) the article suggests that Maud's sadomasochistic relationship with Vilko is driven by a quest to retain her subjectivity after her stroke. The article demonstrates that the film dissects the feared and the unknown territory of the aging female body. -
