Love Me Tender
Late summer, somewhere in Paris. Former solicitor Clémence is writing her debut novel and blossoming in her newfound desire for women. She shares custody of her eight-year-old son Paul amicably with her soon-to-be ex-husband Laurent. But when Laurent finds out about her affairs, everything falls apart. He stops Clémence from seeing their son and demands sole custody. His accusation: Clémence's lifestyle is a threat to Paul. A court battle ensues, in which Clémence not only fights for her son, but also demands sexual and intellectual autonomy.
Based on the novel of the same name by Constance Debré, director Anna Cazenave Cambet's second feature film depicts a woman's struggle between her desire for freedom and the expectations placed on her as a mother and wife. Will she give in to her ex-husband in order to see her son again? Can she live happily without him? ‘Love Me Tender’, acclaimed at the Cannes Film Festival, is emotional, direct and resists simple solutions. And with Vicky Krieps, it has a sensational leading actress who fearlessly reveals the inner conflict of the main character.
