The distributor has picked up US rights from Memento Films International to the Venice competition entry by Xavier Giannoli.

Marguerite

Marguerite stars Catherine Frot as a Paris socialite and aspiring opera singer who mistakenly believes she has a beautiful voice.

Cohen Media Group has scheduled a spring 2016 release on the story, loosely inspired by the life of Florence Foster Jenkins.

Giannoli’s comedy-drama Superstar screened in Venice in 2012.
