Plot: Catherine Breillat's Sex is Comedy concerns a female film director, Jeanne (Anne Parillaud), who is attempting to film a sex scene in her new movie. Complicating the already emotionally difficult shoot is the fact that Jeanne and her lead actor (Grégoire Colin) are sexually involved.
The scene being shot echoes with a scene in
Breillat's previous film,
Fat Girl, adding to the supposed reality of the situations presented in the film.
Roxane Mesquida rounds out the cast as the actress playing the 15-year-old in the scene being filmed.
Sex Is Comedy was screened during the Director's Fortnight at {~the 2002 Cannes Film Festival}. ~ Perry Seibert, All Movie Guide.
