Modern Films has shared an exclusive look at the trailer for the political thriller ‘La Syndicaliste.’
Based on the true story of Maureen Kearney, a trade union organiser in the French nuclear industry who became both a victim and suspect in a shocking scandal. Starring Isabelle Huppert (Elle, The Piano Teacher) in an electrifying performance as Kearney.
Maureen Kearney (Isabelle Huppert) was the head union representative of a French multinational nuclear powerhouse. She became a whistleblower, denouncing top-secret deals that shook the French nuclear sector. Alone against the world, she fought government ministers and industry leaders tooth and nail to bring the scandal to light and to defend more than 50,000 jobs. Her life was turned upside down when she was
violently assaulted in her own home. The investigation was carried out under pressure: the subject was sensitive. Suddenly, new elements created doubt in the minds of the investigators, and at first a victim, Maureen became a suspect.
Directed by Jean-Paul Salomé, Grégory Gadebois, Marina Fois, Yvan Attal, and Pierre Deladonchamps star alongside Huppert.
