Noémie Kocher filed a complaint for sexual harassment in the early 2000s against director Jean-Claude Brisseau. After four years of investigation, the filmmaker was finally sentenced on December 15, 2005 to a one-year suspended prison sentence and 15,000 euros in fines.

Twenty years later, the 54-year-old actress considers the French #MeToo movement “upsetting” “It’s overwhelming to find yourself in the presence of all these women who are moving things forward, Judith Godrèche, Anouk Grinberg, Charlotte Arnould and the others,” she tells Télérama.
