Pardon My French
Célimène, a writer using the pseudonym Nathalie, is trapped in a stifling creative block. Her isolation is shattered by Anais—a persistent, intellectually vibrant young woman who begins to stalk her. Yet, this invasion sparks fascination rather than fear. With her sharp wit and unsettling insight, Anais becomes an unwelcome mirror, forcing Célimène to confront her own anxieties and numbed passions. Their encounter evolves into a psychological chess game, blurring the lines between predator and prey, muse and destroyer, in a dance that challenges the very nature of identity and artistic inspiration.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
Sophie Fillières' film is a witty, unsettling comedy-drama where stalking morphs into a form of brutal therapy. The director expertly shifts tones, balancing levity with psychological unease, keeping the viewer both engaged and deliciously off-balance throughout.
What lingers after the final frame is a sharp, unexpected meditation on creative blockage and solitude, suggesting that the most intrusive outsider might hold up the mirror we need. The perfectly dissonant yet captivating duo of Dominique Blanc and Isabelle Carré elevates this clever game. — MovieFinder Editorial
