GRÂCE À DIEU
France
Synopsis
Director's Biography
François directed the thriller, SEE THE SEA (1997), before making his first feature film a year later with the sassy and cruel SITCOM. He quickly developed a very personal style, on display in the fanciful CRIMINAL LOVERS (1990), and the fearlessly theatrical WATER DROPS ON BURNING ROCKS, adapted from a play by Rainer Werner Fassbinder.
Throughout his prolific career, François Ozon has collaborated with the most revered stars of French cinema including Catherine Deneuve, Isabelle Huppert, Fanny Ardant, and Emmanuelle Béart in 8 WOMEN, Charlotte Rampling in UNDER THE SAND and SWIMMING POOL, Jeanne Moreau in TIME TO LEAVE, and Kristin Scott Thomas in IN THE HOUSE among many others. His work spans many genres from social comedy (POTICHE) to romantic melodrama (THE NEW GIRLFRIEND, staring Romain Duris and Anais Demoustier).
