REINVENTING MARVIN

by Anne Fontaine (France, 2017, 1h55)

starring Oldfield Finnegan, Grégory Gadebois, Isabelle Huppert, Vincent Macaigne, Charles Berling

Martin Clement, born Marvin Bijou, has escaped a little village in the countryside. He has escaped his family, his father's tyranny and his mother's resignation. He has escaped intolerance, rejection and the bullying he suffered from being singled out as "different." Marvin/Martin will risk everything to create the show that represents so much more than success: it is his path to re-invention.
