APPELEZ-MOI MADAME
Click on the image to turn dvd
Price: 20€

In a small village in France, a 55-year-old married man and communist activist becomes a transsexual with the help of his/her wife. Appelez-moi Madame (Call Me Madame), shot in 1986, is Françoise Romand's second movie, after her famous Mix-Up ou Méli-Mélo.

Miss Romand makes documentaries that look like those of nobody else. Though she sticks to facts, they're often facts that few writers of supposedly serious fiction would dare to touch except under pseudonym... It's enough, as in fiction, that the filmaker is able to persuade us to share her curiosity, surprise or point of view... - Vincent Canby (New York Times)

Instead of making a film "about transexuality", Romand manages to draw a portrait of a complex and ultimately rather aloof personality caught in a network of social and intimate relationships, but also to convey to the audience, with a real respect for the subject, a glimpse of her private world... - Jonathan Rosenbaum (Chicago Reader)
