They are more and more numerous. They all deliver, more or less, the same story. They, between 16 and 25 years old, young actresses, ingénues, barely out of the conservatory but already aware of the difficulties of the profession that they have dreamed of pursuing since they were little.

The actress therefore recounts her meeting with Gérard Miller. “In 1997, for my first film, I found myself being summoned by production to go to Gérard Miller’s home. I meet Gérard Miller who offers to show me around his home cinema. It's normal to have confidence when you are sent by production to a screenwriter, that you want to act in a film. This should all be very normal.she begins.
The former model and actress continues like this: “But so I find myself at this home. And there, he offers me a hypnosis session. Which I refuse because once again I don't see… And then I find the guy frankly not likeable. But he's starting to tense up and get a little bit aggressive and say to me “ah well then what are we going to do? What should we do about this scenario?” And I tell him we don't have to do anything at all. Considering how it’s gone, it’s not worth it”.

At the time, I didn't talk to the director or the producer about it. I should have. I actually left. I said to myself he's just an asshole. It turns out that while filming, there was a class. We were all roughly between 28 and 20 years old. There are two young women who quite spontaneously, because they realized that they had experienced the same thing, spoke openly to us”she then continues.
