Liberté (2019)

In the year 1774, amid a tense atmosphere that predates the French Revolution, three expelled libertines from Louis XVI's rigidly puritanical court find themselves adrift somewhere between Potsdam and Berlin. The trio, composed of the audacious Madame de Dumeval, the Duke of Tesis and the Duke of Wand, embark on a compelling mission. They seek to secure the endorsement of the renowned Duke of Walchen, a German luminary renowned for his seductive prowess and free-thinking philosophy. An isolated figure in a land gripped by the tyranny of hypocrisy and false virtue, Walchen presents a beacon of hope for our wayward protagonists. Their objective isn't just to export libertinage—a liberating philosophy rooted in the fierce rejection of morality and authority—to Germany, but also to establish a haven where they can continue their decadent games undeterred. As they navigate these treacherous landscapes, the driving force behind their journey is their desire for freedom, a powerful testament to the human spirit's unyielding quest for liberty. 'Liberté' unfolds as a captivating narrative of enlightenment and rebellion, set against a backdrop marked by the impending storm of revolution.
