Popis (anglicky):

In a small French community in 1870, Rosalie is about to marry Abel, a café owner who is deeply in debt. Rosalie is a young woman with a secret that overshadows her life—she was born with an extreme form of body hair. Her father has saved a considerable dowry to increase her chances of marriage. Abel, owner of a café near a factory, marries Rosalie without knowing her secret, attracted by the promise of financial relief from his debts. On their wedding night, he is shocked by her appearance and rejects her. Rosalie wants nothing more than to stay married because her deepest wish is to have a child. To help Abel with his debts, she decides to grow her beard in the hope that this will attract curious customers to his bar. The villagers quickly grow fond of Rosalie—especially the girls at a local orphanage, who admire her. But Abel continues to struggle with his feelings and his fear of being judged by others. After an accident at the factory, the mood in the village turns against them. Rosalie, steadfast and resilient, is not discouraged by the negative comments, but her relationship with Abel is at stake.

French director Stéphanie Di Giusto (La danseuse) presents Rosalie, another film about an extraordinary woman. Di Giusto drew inspiration for this feminist and delicate film from Clémentine Delait, a French bearded lady and café owner who was famous at the beginning of the 20th century. Starring Nadia Tereszkiewicz and Benoît Magimel.
