Synopsis

A scandal-monger and “influencer” before her time, Colette lived an uninhibited life of freedom that continues to inspire to this day!

From the light pantomimes of the Moulin Rouge to the Académie Goncourt, from her scandalous liaisons to her state funeral, Colette’s life and the codes of what it means to be a woman are paralleled by those of a young artist today in a playful, sensual music-hall.

A delightful ode to freedom, life and the beauty of words!
