Bonnard, Pierre & Marthe - a film by Martin Provost
Beautiful. A touching and visually fetching look at the intertwining of art and stubborn romance. This tale of strong brush strokes and strong emotions — and how places evoke feelings and memories — effortlessly recalls a time when “wellness” classes weren’t needed to connect with nature because nature mattered as much as man-made beauty.
Carried by its two brilliant lead actors, the film is a vigorous, joyful and refreshing portrait of an atypical couple: an artist and his muse who holds the keys to their bohemian existence.
Beautiful and poetic, but also deeply compelling and wonderfully provocative in tasteful and earnest ways, BONNARD, PIERRE AND MARTHE is an extraordinary and well-crafted drama, a spirited examination of desire and artistry, two deeply intertwined concepts.

OFFICIAL SELECTION - 2023 CANNES INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL (Premiere)

Vincent Macaigne and Cecile de France star in BONNARD: PIERRE & MARTHE, the new historical drama from multi award-winning director Martin Provost (Séraphine, The Midwife) about the love story between the famous post-Impressionist painter and his lesser-known (but influential) wife.

1893. When aspiring French painter Pierre Bonnard (Macaigne) - a protégé of Claude Monet - meets Marthe de Méligny (de France), he has no idea that this self-proclaimed aristocrat will become the cornerstone of his life and work. From this moment, she's more than just a muse, appearing in over a third of his work. Together, over five decades, they will reach their artistic fulfillment thanks to a colourful love, different from the standards of the time, nurturing the great mystery around their relationship.

From the producers of La Belle Epoque and Masquerade, BONNARD: PIERRE & MARTHE is a brilliant story of creation and love, of fame and secrets, and the life of the remarkable artist nicknamed “the painter of happiness”.
