Rita Mitsouko, Catherine Ringer and Sarah Grappin have all accused older men of rape or sexual assault. On February 6, Judith Godrèche filed a complaint against her former partner, the director Benoît Jacquot, for “rape with violence against minors” Since then, several personalities have followed suit, also denouncing toxic relationships with older men in the world of culture and, in particular, cinema.
“I recognize myself in what Judith GodRèche says, really. Except that she was beaten, he was much older,” said Ringer.
