Roxane (2019)

Roxane: Directed by Mélanie Auffret. With Guillaume de Tonquédec, Léa Drucker, Lionel Abelanski, Kate Duchêne. What does Cyrano de Bergerac do at a chicken farmer? This is the problem of Raymond, who has always kept his passion for the theater hidden. But when he is threatened with bankruptcy, he decides to try everything for the whole.

“A nice surprise from a young director with a great career ahead of her, undoubtedly. Itu0026#39;s a poetic and surrealistic tale in the Côtes du0026#39;Armor, north of Brittany, with Raymond as main protagonist, an organic farmer who regularly reads Cyrano de Bergerac (Edmond Rostand, 1897) to his hens. To overcome a threat of bankruptcy, Raymond will have to work twice as hard in order to develop and then popularize his passion for theater. Although patchy, this movie is built on a strong and original script, and the actors are talented, especially Guillaume de Tonquédec. As a synthesis, 5/6 of 10.”
