An extraordinary collaboration between two legends of French cinema, Catherine Breillat’s brutally candid autobiographical drama stars Isabelle Huppert as a stroke-afflicted filmmaker manipulated by a notorious con man.

Abus de Faiblesse is based on Catherine Breillat's own autobiographical novel of the same name.

"Catherine Breillat’s 14th film project might be her most personal yet, simply because it is lifted from a true-life ordeal that she experienced first-hand with professional conman Christophe Rocancourt." (Breillat alleges that Hollywood hustler Christopher Rocancourt took €850,000 from her.)
