Synopsis
“It’s as if nothing separates my films from my own life.”
"Personal message" is a unique fictional biography, mixing all the incarnations of Isabelle Huppert into an original story. A portrait in which life is pictured by the cinema Film after film, a woman’s portrait emerges, commentated by Isabelle Huppert, under a false identity, the better to open up. A real interplay of mirrors. Each of her appearances is a link in a larger work, which she has undertaken more or less consciously since her beginnings, always with a taste for risk. This cinematographic allegory will show the incredible journey, the extraordinary talent, the staggering constancy of the “supernatural” actress who has become the author of a fascinating work.
