Camille Claudel 1915

Bruno Dumont directs this biographical drama about the French sculptor Camille Claudel, who is here portrayed by Juliette Binoche. The film focuses on Camille's time spent in an asylum after she is sent there by her brother, the poet Paul Claudel (Jean-Luc Vincent), who questions his sister's sanity when she destroys some of her own works. She lives a reclusive life trying to prove to her doctor that she is mentally stable while waiting in hope that her brother will visit and consent to her discharge from the institution.
