Potiche (Trophy Wife) Trailer

In 1977, in the small town of Sainte-Guenole, Suzanne Pujol (Catherine Deneuve) lives the life of a traditional housewife, doting on her grumpy husband, Robert (Fabrice Luchini), who spends his days running her family’s umbrella business into the ground. To her husband and her two grown children, Madame Pujol is a trophy housewife with no real power; in other words, une potiche.

But when the workers of the umbrella factory go on strike to protest draconian working conditions, all hell breaks loose….and it is up to Suzanne to save the day. Out April 21.
