Guillaume Nicloux directs Blanche Gardin and the writer for a fable full of self-deprecation about the duty of silence. In the Skin of Blanche Houellebecq is a road movie.

There are downturns, a crazy side, struggling supporting roles. If we stay on the sidelines, we won't fully appreciate this punk epic. Otherwise we laugh out loud; but without splinters. It's forbidden. We can't say anything anymore. Be careful, deep film.
