Fashion Victim
Rose & Noir
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.
