“Gabrielle” is a drama based on the Joseph Connard’s novel “The return”, and presents the relationship or better said the absence of a relationship, between Jean (Pascal Greggory) and his wife Gabrielle (Isabelle Huppert).
The director, Patrice Chéreau, realized a strong and a very realistic movie, but he still pointed in an artistic manner the portrait of the breaking-up of a marriage.
“Gabrielle” is a remarkable essay about relationships between human beings and the lies hidden in one.
The marriage between them starts to crack after he discovers a letter that belongs to Gabrielle.
The content of that letter will knock down his belief that the success and the security fortress he built around him are invulnerable.
From that moment on he’ll experience unknown feelings of insecurity, vulnerability, abandonment and betrayal.
The couple find themselves clenched in a game of emotions and stretches at maximum the ability to live and function in the same house.
