REPETITION (LA)
a film by :Catherine Corsini
Louise and Nathalie are 30 year old or so. They meet after a period of separation of more than 10 years. Louise is a dental technician now. Nathalie has become a stage actress, which they wanted both to be one day. Because she admires Nathalie, Louise wants to make her happy in spite of her, and intrigues for her to play "" Lulu "" with Walter Amar, a famous director. She lives for her friend's promise of success : she lives with her, comes to her work, becomes essential to her. Nathalie never has any respite from Louise and their relationship will turn into a spiral of passion.
Louise et Nathalie ont une trentaine d'années. Elles se retrouvent après une séparation de plus de dix ans. Louise est prothésiste dentaire. Nathalie est devenue comédienne de théâtre, ce qu'elles rêvaient d'être un jour toutes les deux. Parce qu'elle admire Nathalie, Louise veut faire son bonheur malgré elle, et intrigue pour qu'elle joue "" Lulu "" avec un metteur en scène prestigieux. Elle vit par procuration la promesse de réussite de son amie : elle habite chez elle, assiste à son travail, lui devient indispensable. Louise ne laisse pas de répit à Nathalie, et leur relation va se transformer en un engrenage passionnel.
