Marie and the Misfits
Marie is an alluring young woman who lacks self confidence. When she leaves Antoine, a melancholic writer who suffers from the rare disorder electromagnetic hypersensitivity she meets Simeon, a jobless journalist. Yet she prefers to let fate decide her future. Antoine and Simeon become obsessed by an elusive Marie and follow her to the island of Groix …
MARIE AND THE MISFITS is an alternative love triangle between fiction and literature, a story of desperate souls between Paris and distant Brittany, a story about a story being written, an ode to the meandering flow of life and last but not least a memorial to the wonderful recently deceased Emmanuelle Riva (HIROSHIMA MON AMOUR by Alain Resnais, LOVE by Michael Haneke).
Sébastien Betbeder
was born in 1975 in Pau and is currently based in Paris. After his studies at the Beaux Arts in Bordeaux, he completed his degree in Tourcoing at the Fresnoy.
