Deeply affected by the death of her husband in a car accident, Cécile Cassard (Béatrice Dalle) finds herself unable to function, unable to cope with life and incapable of even looking after her child, Lucas. She leaves the boy with a friend (Jeanne Balibar) and goes to the river with the intention of drowning herself, but instead of finding oblivion she reawakens in a strange place – a Toulouse that seems to be inhabited exclusively by men. Little by little, she forms friendships and one particular relationship with a gay man, Matthieu (Romain Duris). Through her relationship with Matthieu she becomes a new person and learns to find happiness again in her life.
17 Fois Cécile Cassard is an unusual film that never feels the need to adhere to anything resembling a plot. The film is about a woman who, after the loss of her husband, needs to leave her old life entirely and irrevocably behind her - her friends, her needs, her desires - and be re-born as an entirely new person. This story of rebirth is told through seventeen scenes, each separated by a black screen. While never quite surreal, there is a slight edge of unreality to many of the scenes. One scene where she crosses a bridge to visit a cemetery, but is prevented from entering by a ferocious black dog, is simply drenched in symbolism. Apart from the phantom of her dead husband, only women are present in the early part of the film, while the second half of the film after her "death," features only male characters and often homo-erotic situations. Quite what all this means is anyone’s guess. Much of it presumably reflects the psychological and emotional state of Cécile, her desire to escape from being a wife and a mother, escaping from an emotion-based existence into a more physical reality. Possibly. In any case, the film’s look and feel is persuasive, containing many beautifully filmed scenes and a fine performance from Béatrice Dalle (Betty Blue; Trouble Every Day; Clean) who seems to strike the perfect emotional pitch for each scene of morbid introspection, with a perfectly counterbalanced performance from the more outgoing and expressive Romain Duris (L'Auberge espagnole; Les Poupées russes; The Beat That My Heart Skipped).
