Arrête ton cinéma! (2016)
Directed by Diane Kurys

Comedy

Film Synopsis

It is with the unbridled enthusiasm of a novice that Sybille sets about writing her first film script.  A well-known actress, she has now decided that the time is ripe for her to make the move to the other side of the camera.  Everything seems to be going well for her.  Her producers, Brigitte and Ingrid, are on her side and Sybille has no qualms about putting to one side her family life to join them on this mad adventure.  But the dream soon turns sour when the realities of making a film hit home.  Sybille's seemingly boundless optimism begins to evaporate when it finally dawns on her  that she has been propelled into an insane nightmare by her totally unhinged producers...
