Starring
Maggie Cheung
Olivier Assayas

Maggie Cheung (playing herself) has been cast by a once revered but now out of touch director as the latex-clad cat-burglar in his ill-fated remake of the French classic Les Vampires. From the moment she arrives in Paris chaos ensues until the director finally has a breakdown and is replaced by another who doesn’t know why she was cast in the first place. Amidst all the confusion Cheung becomes drawn to her character and is soon pulling on latex and prowling her hotel corridors at night.

This critically-acclaimed satire on the world of filmmaking is one of the freshest and coolest French films of the 90’s
