2008 · Movie · 111 min · ★ 4.8
The ultimate nightmare for a racist? Becoming as black as the people she abhors. This is exactly what happens to Agathe Cléry: she’s struck down with a rare disorder of the adrenal cortex glands that cause the skin to darken inexorably. One morning Agathe wakes up to find herself pitch black… There’s no way out. Paradoxically, these cruel blows start to make Agathe more of a human being. When she’s taken on by a company that employs anyone who isn’t white, it becomes imperative that her true identity remains a secret. Especially since she’s fallen madly in love with her boss, Quentin. The girl is in a fine mess!
