REVIEWS
A deceptively small film with an incredibly rich performance at its heart. - Lisa Nesselson (Screen Daily)
Directed and written by Cyril Mennegun, the film --about France's growing provincial under class-- features a knock-out lead performance by relative newcomer Corinne Masiero. - Jordan Mintzer (Hollywood Reporter)

Rebellious and enraged, Louise Wimmer (beautifully portrayed by Corinne Masiero) has lost everything except for her pride and her will to enjoy life. Living out of her car and barely surviving on her meager wages as a cleaning lady, Louise works hard and earns money - just not enough. She is waiting for the City to give her a social housing. And she is not giving up!
LOUISE WIMMER, a neo-realist drama about a woman from the new "working poor" class, is the first fiction feature from documentary filmmaker Cyril Mennegun.
Shown with Frank-Étienne vers la béatitude (Frank-Étienne)by Constance Meyer.
