Love Me Tender
Thu 19 Mar
Clémence gave up her job as a lawyer and her marriage to write, and to date women. Her amicable relationship with ex-husband Laurent swivels when she lets slip her sexual preferences. When he wreaks revenge by claiming sole custody of their son, Clémence refuses to compromise. Her life is torn in two: between her personal and professional life and the bitter legal wrangling to reinstate her maternal rights. Krieps’ shifts in body language express all this. Adapted from Constance Debré’s semi-autobiographical bestseller, this reveals much about the violence of moral order towards women.
