Chéri

The movie Chéri starts in early 20th century Paris, France. It's a take-over of an homonymous novel by a french novelist Colette that tells the story of a remarkable affaire between Lea, a rich and exceptionally beautiful courtesan, and Chéri, the young adolescent, the son of an old colleague and rival Madame Peloux. Thanks to Lea this spoilt unexperienced young man learns to love but after six blissful years her mother sets him up with Edmee, the daughter of another rich courtesan named Marie Laure. Whilst parting approaches, Lea and Chéri make peace over war with their situation. However the roots of their easy-going luxurious life lie far more deeper than they hold. When they slowly start to realise how much they mean to each other, it's already too late. See the trailer on cheri-movie.com◆
