How to Be a Good Wife La bonne épouse

Martin Provost / France, Belgium / 2020 / 109 min / French

Alsace, the 1960s. Running a household and bending to conjugal duty is what Paulette Van Der Beck ardently teaches in her “housekeeping school” for girls. Her certainties are shaken when she finds herself widowed and ruined. But then her first love reappears. What if the good wife became a free woman? The spirit of May ’68 is certainly in the air… A comedy with Juliette Binoche in the lead.

This film explores class differences, belonging, human closeness, and the search for identity – from shame to pride. It is a radically tender coming-of-age story accompanied by a wealth of fresh, alternative music.
