During the discussion, Chloé Vialard and Sadhana Rai highlighted the vital support available in Singapore for victims of violence, particularly through the Support Centre for women in the French expatriate community.

Established in December 2021, the Centre provides a safe, confidential space for victims of all forms of violence. It offers access to specially trained legal professionals and functions as a holistic support system for those in need.

The film sparked questions regarding the portrayal of twins and the synchronization and coordination needed to perform these roles. Camille Razat and Mélanie Robert shared with us how their long-life friendship in real life helped them achieve this feat. 

We also talked about their training with the piano, the learning of the special technique from the sisters Pleynet, and their meeting with the sisters.

As Franck Dubosc plays the role of the twins' father in the film, he shared with a lot of humor his journey of being a father and his performance as an apneist! 

The discussion mainly focused on Franck Dubosc's dual role in the film as both actor and director and how him being the director of the movie influenced his play as an actor. If he was not playing, he was behind the camera, and when playing he was expecting specific reaction from the actors. 

Dubosc also reflected on the evolving tone of his films, noting the shift from lighthearted comedies to darker narratives. He explained that this change wasn’t intentional but rather a natural reflection of his personal taste and, as he humorously put it, the realities of "getting older."

And with this the 40th French Film Festival comes to an end!

We warmly thank you, our visitors, guests, staff and partners for making this year's edition a success! 

Au revoir and see you next year!
