‘Angel Face’ Trailer: Marion Cotillard Stars As A Partying Mother In New Drama Premiering At Cannes

Whenever actress Marion Cotillard has a new film at Cannes, we take notice. And this year, the acclaimed French actress is teaming up with filmmaker Vanessa Filho, who is making her directorial debut, on the film “Guele d’ange (Angel Face).” Premiering at the upcoming festival in the Un Certain Regard section, the film looks like it could be one of the standouts of Cannes.

“Angel Face” follows a woman, played by Cotillard, who abandons her 8-year-old child after meeting someone at a nightclub. In the first trailer for the film, you can see just how the child reacts and what led to the mother leaving. Watching the footage, it brings to mind “The Florida Project,” with how the young girl seems to be the focus of what is definitely going to be a pretty heartbreaking story.

Cotillard is clearly one of the best actresses working today, having collected numerous awards over her career, including an Academy Award for Best Actress in the film “La Vie en Rose.” And judging by the trailer, her role in “Angel Face” looks to be another strong entry in her IMDB.

The Cannes Film Festival starts May 8.

Here’s the official synopsis and poster for the film:

ANGEL FACE (French: Gueule d’ange) is an upcoming French drama film directed by Vanessa Filho and co-written with Alain Dias (aka Diastème) and François Pirot. It was selected to compete in the Un Certain Regard section at the 2018 Cannes Film Festival (71st Festival de Cannes).

The film stars Oscar-winning actress Marion Cotillard (La Vie en Rose) as Marlene, a single mother who lives with her 8-year-old daughter, Elli, in a small town near the French Riviera. One day, Marlene suddenly chooses to abandon her daughter for a man she has just met during yet another night of excess. Elli must confront her mother’s demons to get her back.
