Movie- SITTING DUCK (7.30pm)


August 31, 2024

SITTING DUCK: The true story of Maureen Kearney (Isabelle Huppert), the head union representative of a French multinational nuclear powerhouse. She became a whistleblower, denouncing top-secret deals that shook the French nuclear sector. 

The Australian 3.5/5 "A provocative and at times disturbing drawn-from-life drama that is given extra power by an outstanding performance by Isabelle Huppert." 

Set in the world of nuclear power and politics

An investigative thriller set in the world of nuclear power and politics. Alone against the world, Maureen Kearney fought government ministers and industry leaders, tooth and nail to bring the scandal to light and to defend more than 50,000 jobs. Her life was turned upside down when she was violently assaulted in her own home. The investigation is carried out under pressure: the subject is sensitive. Suddenly, new elements create doubt in the minds of the investigators. At first a victim, Maureen becomes a suspect.

DIRECTOR: Jean-Paul Salomé
WITH: Isabelle Huppert, Grégory Gadebois
