Courted (2015)

In the harsh, unforgiving world of the court, Michel Racine is a name that brings a shiver of dread to those unfortunate enough to cross his path. Renowned as an unflinchingly severe judge of the Assize Court, his reputation for ruthlessness precedes him. When Martial Beclin, a man charged with the unthinkable crime of killing his infant daughter, finds himself facing Racine, his future seems ominously bleak. Yet, as the gavel falls on the first day of trial, the winds of fate begin to shift. In the sea of stern faces, Michel's steely gaze falls upon a familiar visage - Ditte, a woman whose profession of healing stands in stark contrast to the destructive power of his judicial hammer. A woman who, unbeknownst to her, has been the object of Michel's secret adoration for years. As the trial unfolds and the courtroom drama intensifies, Michel finds himself in a state of inner turmoil, caught between his harsh judicial persona and the softer man that Ditte's presence evokes. Suddenly, this isn't just another case, and Michel isn't the same fearsome judge. A gripping tale of justice, love, and the power of transformation, "Courted" takes us on a journey where the lines blurring personal emotions and professional duty are as unpredictable as the verdict of the trial itself.

Courted is a comedy movie featuring Fabrice Luchini and directed by Christian Vincent.
