ANYTHING FOR HER (POUR ELLE)
The Story:
Lisa (Diane Kruger) and Julien (Vincent Lindon) are married and lead a happy, quiet existence with their son, Oscar (Lancelot Roch). One morning the police burst in and arrest Lisa for her boss’s murder, at an underground parking lot: her fingerprints were on the murder weapon (a fire extinguisher) and her boss’s blood was on her jacket. Lisa insists that another woman murdered her boss but the jury weren’t having it and Lisa got twenty years.
Over the next few years Julien battles the legal system to get his wife free, stopping at nothing to reunite his family. Losing the battle, Lisa gives up and attempts suicide. Julien can take no more and is determined to get her out of prison, whatever it takes, at any cost. The literature teacher formulates an elaborate Prison Break style plan to get her out, against all the odds...
