Camille Cottin speaks voluntarily missing person drama “out out of love”

Exclusive: Call my agent! Star Camille Cottin has reunited himself with Nathan Ambrosioni for his third film from love about a woman, whose sister disappears, leaves her two little children behind.

It is the actress's second cooperation with the 25-year-old, autodactic director of the actress, after playing Toni about a single mother of five children in his second year 2022 and thinking about a new life while her children leave the house.

“He writes, directs and edits everything himself. It is everything in his head. He is really obsessed with the cinema and has so many references and directors that he loves it … what really enriches what he does,” says Cottin from Ambrosiani, who quoted influences such as Hirokazzu Kore-Eda and Edward Yang in previous interviews.

Out of love also depends on motherhood, but darker.

Cottin plays a successful, self -contained career woman without a wish to have children, whom she suddenly find responsible for her younger sister Suzanne's son and his daughter after she has disappeared and disappeared.

Jeanne is confused by this act of task and processing with the sudden arrival of two stoic but emotionally traumatized little children in their proper life, it is shocked to discover that the police are not examined Suzanne's disappearance because it will be a voluntary act.

The drama takes an indication of a French law in real life, which says that everyone has the right to disappear without being pursued.

“Around 10,000 people disappear in France every year,” says Cottin. “I was very sensitive to this script, not only for researching the phenomenon of the volunteer, but also for the deeper research of a mother who cannot be a mother for her child. It takes questions of motherhood and family, but in a completely different way of Toni.”

“If you leave your own children, it happens, but it is difficult and then in the film the sister demands this children to my character, a woman who never wanted children. Then there is uncertainty about what to do next, the police are not disappearing due to the law.”

“Jeanne keeps going in earlier scenes of her childhood and spoke to her father to try Fathom how and why her sister has reached a point where she did so terrible … The film touches all the questions that remain unanswered and how difficult it is for those who have been left behind.”

Studiocanal, which originally participated in the production as a co-producer and French dealer, has taken over international sales and will now launch the title of traditional Cannes buyers.

The film is produced by Nicolas Dumont and Hugo Sélignac from the Mediawan company Chi-Fou-Mi Productions, with France 2 also being on board as a co-producer.

Cottin is accompanied by Juliette Armanet as sister and Monia Chocri as Suzanne's on-off friend and child actor Mano Varvat and Nina Birman. Armanet is one day in Cannes this year as the star of the opening film, while Chocri appears in a certain consideration for the title “Love Me Tender”.

The actress, who worked with children on many occasions, praises her young co-stars.

“There is always something very surprising when they cut very well because they don't know where it comes from,” she says about the subtleties of working with children on the set.

“Sometimes they face a depth of emotions, this is unexpected. With the 12th boy, who is 12 years old and a 10-year-old plays, there is a scene in which we are in the washroom and something is so deep out of it,” she says.

“The little girl was six and that is a different dynamic. The greatest thing is to get her to forget the camera, but that is always difficult with a six -year -old, because if you say, don't look, then you want to look,” she adds.

“These two children, who were selected after a long casting process, were fantastic, but it is true that it always increases pressure on the sentence because they have shorter hours [under French laws governing for minors on set] And more unknown … it's a bit like shooting on film. “

At the set of Eric Toledano and Olivier Nakache, only an illusion of Pierre Schoers Rembrandt and Tamara Stepanyans Sauver Les Morts will be seen.

It was recently announced for the role of the evil inname Madame Thénardier in Fred Cavayés upcoming adaptation of Les Miserables together with Benjamin Laferhe as Monsieur Thénardier.

“It will be an interesting duo towards Benjamin Laferhe,” she says.

There are also rumors about Cottin's upcoming return to her role as a top agent Andréa Martel for a final episode of Call My Agent!.

“I can't really say anything, but there are serious possibilities that it will come back,” says Cottin.
