Potiche

Story

Set in 1977 in a provincial French town, Potiche is a free adaptation of the 1970's emponymous hit comic play. Catherine Deneuve is Suzanne Pujol, a housebound "trophy housewife" (or "potiche,") who steps in to manage the umbrella factory run by her husband after the workers go on strike. To everyone's surprise, Suzanne proves herself a competent and assertive woman of action. But when her husband returns from a restful cruise in top form, things get complicated.
