Huppert Joins Abus de faiblesse

French acting legend Isabelle Huppert has joined the cast of Catherine Breillat’s autobiographical film "Abus de faiblesse" according to Screen Daily.



The story is based on Breillat’s real-life experiences with celebrity hustler Christophe Rocancourt whom she befriended. He took advantage of her fragile state after she had a stroke in 2004 and embezzled her out of money

Huppert plays self-destructive, hemiplegic film director Maud who enters into a dangerous friendship with flamboyant crook Vilko (Kool Shen). 

Filming kicks off later this year.
