CofC Dept. of French, Francophone, and Italian Studies
and Alliance Française de Charleston present a French film:
Potiche (Trophy Wife)
at College of Charleston Thaddeus Street Education Center
Septima Clark Auditorium 118
25 St. Philip Street, Charleston, SC 29401
In Potiche, it's 1977 and women's liberation is in the air but Suzanne (Catherine Deneuve) is still the self-effacing, elegant housewife of wealthy industrialist Robert Pujol (Fabrice Luchini). Pujol oversees his umbrella factory with an iron fist and is equally tyrannical with his children and trophy housewife. When the workers go on strike, things get complicated.
With Catherine Deneuve, Gérard Depardieu, Judith Godrèche, Fabrice Luchini, Jérémie Renier, and Karin Viard. Best European Director, François Ozon, Venice Film Festival 2010.
Co-sponsored by the College of Charleston Dept. of French, Francophone, and Italian Studies and Alliance Française de Charleston
