POTICHE - BOITACLOUS

In the small-town bourgeoisie of the 70s, Suzanne Pujol drifts between starched doilies and facade smiles. A model wife, a perfect mother, dreamy and transparent, she embodies the ideal trinket… until the day her husband Robert collapses. Then the porcelain shatters.

Forced to take the reins of the family umbrella factory, she flips the script, redistributes roles, and reveals, beneath her homemaker facade, a lioness who was just waiting for the storm.

When Barillet and Grédy penned this visionary comedy in the 70s, they had no idea that, 50 years later, it would have lost none of its joyful ferocity.

Today, fueled by the infectious energy of Clémentine Célarié, the boulevard becomes even more a weapon of subversion, where marital hypocrisies, power struggles, and a thirst for emancipation explode in a fireworks display of lines.

For behind the polished appearances and highly comedic situations, "Potiche" jubilantly questions the place of women, the weight of conventions, and the freedom that lies dormant within each of them.
