Lost Illusions, the exclusive clip

Lucien is a young poet in search of fortune. He has high hopes for his future and is determined to take the reins of his own destiny by abandoning the family typography and trying his luck in Paris under the wing of his patron. Rejected by the Parisian aristocratic society for his humble origins and his dangerous relationship with the baroness, he finds himself alone, penniless, hungry and humiliated and seeks revenge by writing controversial articles. In the coveted Paris, he finds a cynical world where everything – and everyone – can be bought and sold.

Taken from the masterpiece by Honoré de Balzac, The human Comedy, Lost Illusions is directed by the director Xavier Giannoli who signs a film set in 1820 France with extraordinarily contemporary themes and tones. A human comedy with an exceptional cast including the protagonist Benjamin Voisin, Xavier Dolan, Vincent Lacoste, Cécile de France e Gérard Depardieu.

The film will be in theaters – I Wonder Pictures and Unipol Biografilm Collection – from December 30th.
