Sara Forestier to me des “suicidal thoughts” after his altercation on the set of Good man
In 2017, the film Good man comes out in the cinema. “I was hit by an actor on a filmI was slapped and left the film“, recalls the one who subsequently went to the police station.

So I took this time, I filed a complaint“, she says, in addition to deploring the lack of support in these moments. “We often joke about damaged women saying that they are crazy (…) Actually no, we are just damaged“, she adds before admitting that she could no longer sleep and that she had “desires for suicide”.
