幕后激情

少女Lucie因电视节目见到了她疯狂迷恋的歌星Lauren。于是不顾一切来到巴黎追寻Lauren。在这里，她走进了Lauren的世界，目睹了舞台下的她，她的生活。肮张的内幕似乎也改变了单纯的Lucie，当她邂逅了Lauren深爱的男人时，她引诱了他。她是否还爱着Lauren呢？

Lucie (Le Besco) is a normal working-class teenager with a doting, if not always understanding mother, and one obsession - she's crazy about glamorous, radiant, unreal pop idol Lauren (Seigner). One day her mother arranges to give Lucie her dearest wish, and has Lauren visit her at home for a surprise TV appearance. Things, predictably, don't turn out as planned, and a distraught Lucie pursues her idol to Paris, where her hotel suite is besieged by other monomaniac fans. Somehow, Lucie makes it through to the star's inner circle to find that the showbiz dream isn't all it's cracked up to be. A timely story about the nature of fame, fan worship, showbiz illusion and exploitation, Emmanuelle Bercot's story gives the theme a distinctive twist in focusing on female-female fan obsession, with all that entails in terms of narcissism and lesbian desire. Mixing cold realism, fantasy and hothouse melodrama, Backstage is heady, intense and often moving, and provides another platform for Isild Le Besco (seen last year in Benoît Jacquot's À toute de suite), who is fast establishing herself as one of France's most compelling young performers.
