Robert Guédiguian's "Une femme aujourd'hui" Opens in French Theaters on October 21, 2026

Robert Guédiguian's new feature "Une femme aujourd'hui" reaches French cinemas on October 21, 2026. Its protagonist, Juliette, appears to embody success: a handsome home, romantic attachments, a well-paid position in international finance, and constant global travel. After her hierarchical superior rapes her, she questions her entire life and turns toward caring for others. Through this narrative, Guédiguian depicts the France of 2026, a country of hardening polarization and rising violence. The director presented the film as a guest of Nathalie Amar on RFI. The same broadcast included a segment by Marjorie Bertin, who visited "Trop mignon ! L'art du bonheur" at the Louvre Lens, an exhibition examining why and how artworks make us feel good. The episode's playlist featured Angèle's "Au revoir" and Nouria Rovira Salat's "Estar en Paz."
