A night of passion ensues.

He’s trying to be a good father, a kind ex-husband, a nice colleague, an understanding sibling… But ©DR ©DR the planets have not been exactly aligned in his favor lately. With his son turning into a hardcore vegan, his daughter into a pathological overachiever and his sister selling oversized paintings of their naked parents, it seems to our ever-so prudent Philippe that everyone around him is starting to behave more and more erratically… When his colleague (who also accidentally tried to chop off his ear in a fit of misplaced anger) moves into Philippe’s apartment, things start to go from bad to insane for our hero.

Several tourists have vanished while relaxing on the beautiful beaches of the Channel Coast. Infamous inspectors Machin and Malfoy soon gather that the epicenter of these mysterious disap- pearances must be Slack Bay, a unique site where the Slack river and the sea join only at high tide. There lives a small community of fishermen and other oyster farmers. Among them evolves a curious family, the Bréfort, renowned ferrymen of the Slack Bay, lead by the father nick-named “The Eternal”, who rules as best as he can on his prankster bunch of sons, especially the impetu- ©DR ous Ma Loute, aged 18. Towering high above the bay stands the Van Peteghems’ mansion. Every summer, this bourgeois family ­­– all degenerate and decadent from inbreeding – stagnates in the villa, not without mingling during their leisure hours of walking, sailing or bathing, with the ordinary local people, Ma Loute and the other Bréforts. Over the course of five days, as starts a peculiar love story between Ma Loute and the young and mischievous Billie Van Peteghem, confusion and mystification will descend on both families, shaking their convictions, foundations and way of life.

Not far from Paris. It is party day at Marguerite Dumont’s castle. Like every year, an array of music lovers gathers around a great cause at the owner’s place. Nobody knows much about this woman except that she is rich and that her whole life is devoted to her passion: music. Marguerite sings. She sings wholeheartedly, but she sings terribly out of tune. In ways quite similar to the Castafiore, Marguerite has been living her passion in her own bubble, and the hypocrite audience, always coming in for a good laugh, acts as if she was the diva she believes she is. When a young, provocative journalist decides to write a rave article on her latest performance, Marguerite starts to believe even further in her talent. This gives her the courage she needs to follow her dream. Despite her husband’s reluctance, and with the help of a has-been divo, both funny and mean, she decides to train for her first recital in front of a crowd of complete strangers. “Cover your ears and open your hearts! A pitch-perfect comedy of manners… a splendid satire.” VARIETY “Catherine Frot is, ahem, pitch-perfect as the industriously tone-deaf Baroness… Michel Fau is a foppish delight…” SCREEN “Catherine Frot in a heartbreaking and hilarious performance.” THE NEW YORK TIMES “MARGUERITE is a film with a wider emotional spectrum than anything else in Telluride. Catherine Frot is at once hilarious and heartbreaking.” THE WALL STREET JOURNAL PRODUCED BY FIDÉLITÉ FILMS (LITTLE NICHOLAS, ON MY WAY) CO-PRODUCED BY FRANCE 3 CINÉMA, SIRENA FILM (THE BEST OFFER, A ROYAL AFFAIR) AND SCOPE PICTURES FRANCE, CZECH REPUBLIC, BELGIUM | 2015 I 127 MIN I FRENCH BIARRITZ LATIN WARSAW WARSAW AMERICAN
