France, August 2024, and the Olympic Games are in full swing. Thirty-year-old Blandine arri­ves in Paris to watch the swim­ming com­pe­ti­ti­ons, reu­ni­te with a half-sis­ter she has not seen in ten years and meet her young nie­ce for the first time. Blandine has come from Normandy, whe­re she has grown accus­to­med to peace and soli­tu­de. In Paris, she finds hers­elf immer­sed in the hust­le and bust­le of a city whe­re dif­fe­rent rules seem to app­ly. As the days go by, she meets new peo­p­le, gets lost, hesi­ta­tes, picks up old threads, estab­lishes new ones and, even­tual­ly, finds her way back to hers­elf. Blandine drafts a new map for her spi­rit and soul as she navi­ga­tes her way through the heart of a city com­ple­te­ly domi­na­ted by this extra­or­di­na­ry event.

[Credits] [Tickets & Termine] [Trailer]

In the ear­ly 17^th cen­tu­ry, some­whe­re in Germany, a mys­te­rious sol­dier arri­ves in an iso­la­ted Protestant vil­la­ge. Slight and mode­st by natu­re, his face dis­fi­gu­red by a scar, this stran­ger decla­res hims­elf to be the heir of a long-aban­do­ned farm­stead and pro­du­ces a docu­ment to sup­port his cla­im to the sus­pi­cious vil­la­gers. With the pas­sa­ge of time, he over­co­mes their doubts and, pro­ving hims­elf to be a hard-working, God-fea­ring man, beco­mes a part of their com­mu­ni­ty. However, his quest for accep­tance is built on a bold-faced lie. The true and twis­ted tale of a swind­ler who, defy­ing her birth as a woman, com­por­ted hers­elf as a man and decei­ved a village.
