I am Frehel

This is the story of a fresh-faced young girl named Fréhel, a chanson réaliste singer of the interwar period whose chaotic fate swings wildly from success to moments of ruin. It’s also the story of a contemporary female author, Violaine Schwartz, who discovers Fréhel and decides to write a novel about her. And finally, it’s the story of the remarkable actress Christine Vouilloz who decides to speak Violaine’s words, choosing director Gian Manual Rau to accompany her on this Russian doll-style adventure and lend his superb skills to the stories of three distinct characters: the singer, the novelist, and Life herself.
