FILM FANS CAN STAY THE NIGHT IN THE CHALET, IMMORTALISED IN ONE OF THE YEAR’S BIGGEST FRENCH FILMS Cinephiles can get a unique perspective on one of this year’s most exciting Oscar hopefuls
by staying in the chalet at the heart of French drama Anatomy of a Fall, which is available to rent on AIRBNB. Anatomy of a Fall (Anatomie d’une chute in French), directed by French
filmmaker Justine Triet, won the Palme d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival and took home six César awards, the French equivalent of the Oscars. This Sunday, March 10, the film will compete in
five Oscar categories including Best Film, Best Director and Best Actress for its German star, Sandra Hüller. The chalet is part of a converted farm in the village of Villarembert, at 1,400m
above sea level, in the Savoie, close to the Le Corbier ski resort. A duplex apartment on the ground floor, complete with private terrace, is available to rent from €90 a night. It can host
four people. The Airbnb advert touts the chalet’s “authentic charm” and “cosy” atmosphere. Anatomy of a Fall revolves around whether a Frenchman, played by Samuel Theis, fell from an
upstairs window in the chalet, or was pushed by his wife, played by Hüller. It charts her journey through the police investigation up to the court case, where she must plead her innocence.
Production took place at the chalet during the spring of 2022. [embedded content] The infamous window is no longer visible, having been added and later removed by production, _Le Figaro_

she did not mention the shooting in the rental advert. “It is the chalet’s proximity to nature and the ski resorts which are selling points for holidaymakers more than the location of a
film where someone dies,” she told the French daily. Read more FILM AND TV SHOWS TO IMPROVE YOUR FRENCH IN MARCH TO SUB OR TO DUB: THE DILEMMA OF FILM FANS IN FRANCE UPDATED: READERS SHARE
