Kulturkino Kaimt-"Die Witwe Cliquot"

Drama, Biopic FR 2024, 90 Min, FSK 12 Directed by Thomas Q. Napper With: Haley Bennett, Tom Sturridge, Natasha O'Keeffe

Biopic about the first businesswoman to run a champagne house

In the early 19th century, Barbe-Nicole Clicquot Ponsardin (Haley Bennett) is faced with an almost irrepressible task. After the unexpected death of her husband François Clicquot (Tom Sturridge), she is to take over the management of the family business and produce the best champagne. The young mother has to battle numerous obstacles and adversities, especially as it is unusual for women to run businesses in management positions at this time. But the champagne empire that we know today as Veuve Clicquot will outlast her life. Between flashbacks showing her relationship with her husband and her early challenges, and scenes from her present, in which she confronts her mentor Louis Bohne (Sam Riley), a stirring portrait of this extraordinary woman emerges.
