    • Synopsis
    • Isabelle Huppert stars in director Benoît Jacquot's sumptuously beautiful portrait of a woman finding her destiny.
      Adapted from the novel by prize-winning author Pascal Quignard (All The World's Mornings), Villa Amalia is the story of Ann, a musician,
      whose life is turned upside down by a kiss. When she sees Thomas kissing another woman, Ann makes a clean break, leaving him and everything else far behind her. Suddenly unsure of everything that seemed so certain, Ann knows only that she must change her life and
      become someone else to find herself. With her music and the friendship of Georges, who pops out of her distant past, she sets off on a journey that will take her to an island where the Villa Amalia stands.
      BAFTA award-winner, Cannes Best Actress and César Award-winner Isabelle Huppert (I Heart Huckabees, 8 Women) stars opposite Jean-
      Hugues Anglade (Taking Lives, The Professional).
