CINEMANIA : ''My Piece of the Pie'' and the Occupy-Wall-Street Global Movement

Gilles Lellouche in My Piece of the Pie

Feeling like a rock star after the warm public reception he received in Montreal on Saturday at CINEMANIA Festival, movie director Cedric Klapisch explained that he was forever hearing news about plant closures when he decided to write a film about high finance and its money games.

''I'm bad'' says the London trader about to accept a job in his home country of France which could bring him back in 6 months as President of the agency.

The movie depicts high finance from an outsider's perspective, that of a jobless mother of three who moved to Paris and find work as cleaning lady. She will take on more and more responsibility in his extremely luxurious apartment where he will receive his acquaintances from his social financial status, all nasty heterosexual men, all but his ex-girlfriend who works for a competitor across the street in London and goes out with one of them.

Cedric Klapisch indicated on stage that he has cleared off the script any such individuals who could be badly perceived by the public. Like Russan escorts on drugs, for example.

This movie was written before the current Occupy-Wall-Street Global Movement and seems to be more than ruling.

My Piece of the Pie will be reaching cinemas across Quebec on Friday November 11.
