Set in Paris LE DIVORCE is an alluring and elegant comedy of love and divorce French-style. Isabel Walker a young not-so-innocent American abroad arrives in Paris to find that her sister’s French husband (’the frog prince’) has just walked out. While Isabel embarks on her own sentimental education - seduced by gourmet food antiques existentialism and an older man - her sister’s marriage disintergrates into bitter Franco-American wrangles over money titles and a mysterious painting. With a sharp tongue and an ironic eye for the foibles of the Parisian bourgeoisie the French art world and American ex-patriots Isabel is a collector of experience even those she can’t control. Comedy veers suddenly close to tragedy as passionate jealousy self-interest and artistic intrigue interweave.
