About Carmela... une si jolie petite fille
The film takes place in a peculiar factory. An off screen voice gives a brief portrait of the characters: the former boss who has chosen to become the factory sweeper (Alain Payet himself), Armand (Dominique Aveline) who used to be the accountant but made a 'mistake' and chose to work in the workshop instead.
Directed by Alain Payet, Carmela... une si jolie petite fille leans on a strong ensemble — Carmelo Petix, Cathy Ménard, Marianne Aubert — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 1982.
