Director: Gérard Jugnot
Actors: Gérard Jugnot / Saïda Jawad / Bernard Le Coq / J. Diego / A. Bouab

From writer-director Gérard Jugnot ("Monsieur Batignole"), FASHION VICTIM is an irreverent new period comedy about a fashion designer, who in 1577 is sent headlong into the centre of the Spanish Inquisition!

Pic Saint Loup (Jugnot), a great couturier in decline, is entrusted with a diplomatic mission by Henri III: he must create his most beautiful ceremonial gown for the arranged marriage of one of the king's nephews with the daughter of a Spanish nobleman. So Saint Loup (who's not exactly straight) sets out on the road surrounded by his staff. The trouble is, his very talented assistant is a Moor, his perfumer a converted Jew, and his hairdresser's a raging queen - and in fundamentalist Catholic Spain, this makes them all extremely "persona non grata"...

A royal wedding, the Inquisition, outcasts, heretics and plotters make for an explosive and hilarious mix, with Jugnot again demonstrating great comic timing with this, his tenth film as director.
