Abstract

Best described as a psychological thriller in the spirit of Vertigo by Alfred Hitchcock, Who You Think I Am (Celle que vous croyez) by French director Safy Nebbou (Dumas, The Forests of Siberia) is a film about the lie at the heart of every truth, about how we deceive in order to gain love, and about the problem of desire for those who have been deemed undesirable. Adapted from Camille Laurens’s 2017 novel of the same name and co-scripted by Julie Peyr, best known for her collaborations with director Arnaud Desplechin, the film stars Juliette Binoche as Claire, a professor of literature at an unnamed Parisian university.
