Sentimental Education

Directed by C.S. Leigh

With Clément Sibony, Julie Gayet, Arsinée Khanjian, Isabelle Carré and Guillaume Canet

The story revolves around the lives of a group of international fashion models, focusing on the main character, Fabrice. The film examines the hollowness of his glamorous lifestyle, leading to self discovery and ultimately a personal catharsis (and his own death). The film is based on (really, inspired by) the French Book, L'Education Sentimentale, by Gustave Flaubert.
