Actrices
Valeria Bruni-Tedeschi. The name itself exudes something exotic and lively, musical and ambitious, stretching out in many different directions. The Italian-born French actress indeed has been as prolific as few others of her generation. That’s why she also knows the subject matter of her second feature better than anyone else. And she enjoys taking on the lead role, even if it is the worst of its kind: a highly self-centred actress in a mid-life crisis. She and her writing and acting colleague Noemie Lvovsky deliver biting portraits of the archetypes of the theatre world. During the performance of yet another Russian classic - with nobody knowing why it’s being played again - the world of the star Marcelline (Bruni-Tedeschi) starts collapsing. The fact is that she can only live through her characters. Her director (Mathie Amalric) is not much help, and her friend (Lvovsky) is only interested in seeing her fail. Bruni-Tedeschi has a flair for sending her characters out into the most insane, unpredictable and entertaining bungee jumps, yet making sure that they land in the middle of the film again. It is hardly wrong to guess that she is acquainted with the films by Pedro Almodóvar, the Marx Brothers and Ingmar Bergman. At the same time, she knows how to give the French tradition of pomp and wordiness a shot of her unique sense of self-mockery.



Valeria Bruni Tedeschi

Born 1964 in Turin, Italy. Since the mid-80s, she has acted in a large number of films. She has had both larger and smaller parts in films by Chabrol and Ozon. After a long acting career, she had her debut as a director in 2003 with It’s Easier for a Camel, where she also – as in the case of her latest film – played the lead role.
