In 1930s Paris, Madeleine - a pretty, young and penniless actress, is accused of murdering a famous producer.

With the trial causing a sensation, a new life of fame and success begins for Mdeleine, until the truth comes out...

Adapted from a 1934 play by Georges Berr and Louis Verneuil, The Crime Is Mine is a rollicking farce and scabrous satire with a wily feminist edge from François Ozon.
