Two Women
A film by Chloé Robichaud, starring Karine Gonthier-Hyndman, Laurence Leboeuf, Félix Moati, Mani Soleymanlou, Sophie Nélisse and Juliette Gariépy.
Violette and Florence no longer understand what’s happening to them. Respectively on maternity leave and on sick leave, one is on edge, the other feels nothing. The neighbors both feel like failures: despite their careers and families, they’re not happy. Florence’s first infidelity is a revelation. What if happiness meant rebelling against our rigid performance society? In a context where having fun is far down on the list of priorities, sleeping with a delivery boy could be downright revolutionary. For Violette and Florence, it’s the breath of fresh air they’ve been hoping for.
Special Jury Prize – Sundance – 2025
