Fashion Victim

2009 · 97 min Drama Comedy
3.2 / 10 · TMDB

Paris 1577 - King Henri III gives famous couturier Pic Saint Loup a crucial diplomatic mission. He must go to Spain to make a magnificent gown for the wedding of the King's nephew to the daughter of a Spanish noble. The trouble is that the real creative brains behind Saint Loup's outfit is his Moorish assistant, while his perfumer is a Marano Jew and his hairdresser is out, loud and very proud. And Catholic Spain, in the grip of the Inquisition, is no place for Arabs, Jews and homosexuals (Saint Loup is anything but heterosexual). To make matters worse, his secretary is an undercover Protestant plotting revenge for the St. Bartholomew's Day massacre and the father of the bride turns out to be the Chief Inquisitor of Cordoba.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs a sharp satire on religious intolerance, using its historical setting as a lens for contemporary prejudices. It explores the clash between creative expression and dogma through the framework of a costume comedy.

What lingers after viewing is the vibrant chaos of adventure, where Renaissance opulence meets the absurdity of fanaticism, leaving a bittersweet aftertaste. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Gérard Jugnot
