The Lacemaker

A film by Claude Goretta

Back
Isabelle Huppert catapulted from minor actress to international star with her mesmerizing performance in The Lacemaker.
Huppert is “Pomme,” a lovely, fragile, passive Parisian beauty-salon assistant who passes silently through life, taking walks, staring into space, making tea, doing chores, eating apples and ice cream. She’s uneducated, unskilled, underpaid, and unmotivated—she can’t even swim or dance, and she’s never made love—but she appreciates the simple pleasures of life. Pomme is swept away by Francois, a rich, handsome young student, who’s captivated by her innocence at first but soon becomes uninterested and breaks her heart.
