(ANSA) - ROME, OCTOBER 11 - Isabelle Huppert is really out of the category. At 68 she still works a lot between cinema and theater, also demonstrating an all-round ductility just like in LA PADRINA, a film by Jean-Paul Salomé between epolar comedy, in which the actress carries out a real aesthetic, existential and financial transformation. In the film, based on the novel La Daronne by Hannelore Cayre (published in Italy by Edizioni leAssassine) and from 14 October in the room with IWonder, the actress is Patience, a translator specialized in wiretapping for the anti-drug team. A paid woman, with an elderly sick mother in charge and with a life full of emotional frustrations. During an interception, an opportunity for her to change her life comes.In fact, he becomes aware of the hashish trafficking by the son of a woman he knows well, the mother's thief, and thus decides to sneak into the traffickers' network to protect the young man, at least initially.
But when he finds a big load of drugs in his hands, he does not miss the opportunity, takes the leap in quality and becomes LaPadrina, a credible "wholesale trafficker" dressed like an Arab and with a wolf dog by his side. .
Many have seen LA PADRINA as a feminine answer to one of the most beautiful TV series ever produced, that is BREAKING BAD.
There the protagonist was a chemistry professor, Walter White, who, after discovering he has lung cancer, decides to become a partner of a drug dealer in the production of amphetamines to ensure the well-being of his family.
