Angelina Jolie turns in a career-best performance in this immaculate drama set in the high stakes fashion world.

Taking place during the frenzy of Paris Fashion week, Jolie plays American filmmaker Maxine Walker, commissioned to direct a film for a prestigious label.

After receiving sudden, life-changing news, Maxine crosses paths with two other women: Ada (Anyier Anei), a young South Sudanese model who has escaped her predetermined destiny to make a name for herself, and makeup artist Angéle (Ella Rumpf, Marguerite’s Theorem) who quietly dreams of a different life.

While their backgrounds couldn’t be more different, the three women form a strong bond. Amid the  glamorous scenes of haute couture, each must make choices small and significant,
and confront major career decisions.

Anchored by Jolie’s memorable portrayal, the intertwining journeys of these three women are supported by excellent turns from Louis Garrel (The Three Musketeers) and Vincent Lindon (Another World).
