Eve used to be one of the most famous rose creators in the world. Today, her company is on the verge of bankruptcy. On top of that, her secretary Vera has hired three outcasts with absolutely no gardening skills. Though they have nothing in common, they come up with the most crazy plan that could change their lives forever…
Director Pierre Pinaud’s second feature film (ON AIR shown at CINEMANIA 2012) in which he directs Catherine Frot (HAUTE CUISINE, THE MIDWIFE) at the top of her game. The actress who won the Cesar for best actress in 2016 for her performance in Xavier Giannoli’s MARGUERITE, is especially touching as a rosemaker using age-old methods. The film was shot in six weeks in the Rhône-Alps region in the heart of a real business founded in 1930, “la Roseraie Dorieux”. Well documented, THE ROSEMAKER aptly describes the art of cultivating roses, from the creative workshops to the greenhouses, the nurseries, the offices and the fields. Thrilling!
