When Daniel and Isabelle invite Patrick and his new flame, Emma, to dinner, it’s with some misgivings. After all, Patrick has just dumped his ex-wife — their best friend — to run off with the much younger woman. But when the ravishing Emma appears, all of Daniel’s qualms fly out of the window. He’s instantly smitten with the seductive woman… who inspires more than a few flights of fancy, over the course of their evening together. A Gallic take on The Seven Year Itch, Florian Zeller’s adaptation of his own hit play, L’Envers du décor, offers viewers the rare delight of watching thespian giants Gerard Depardieu and Daniel Auteuil face off on the big-screen once again.

Daniel Auteuil | Actor/director Daniel Auteuil won international recognition for his extraordinary performances in Claude Berri’s Jean de Florette and its sequel Manon des Sources (both 1986). The films earned him a César Award for Best Actor, as did his performance in Patrice Leconte’s Girl on the Bridge (1998). Among his innumerable films, he has also starred in Olivier Marchal’s 36 Quai des Orfèvres (COLCOA 2005), Michael Haneke’s Caché (2005) and Yvan Attal’s Le Brio (COLCOA 2018). Auteuil made his directorial debut with the Marcel Pagnol trilogy, The Well-Digger’s Daughter (COLCOA 2012), Marius (COLCOA 2014) and Fanny (COLCOA 2014), in which he also appeared.

Screenwriter Florian Zeller is a renowned novelist and playwright. His play The Father won the 2014 Molière Award for Best Play and was adapted for the screen as Floride (2015), directed by Philippe Le Guay (Naked Normandy, COLCOA 2018). The play subsequently had smash runs in London, Sydney, Singapore and on Broadway.
