Two Women - 2022 - 6/10
AKA - Deux Femmes

Out making his cash runs, the village banker is murdered, car soon set ablaze.
Paris dispatches a veteran commissioner and a fledgling (female) magistrate.
Set in 1965, the inspector disrespects his female counterpart and hones in on the village outsider.
Colette, independent and financially well off.
She has sexual affairs, and, on the sly, assists with illegal abortions.
As ever, “guilty until proven innocent” applies in France.
The “two women” function as models for how females were (are) regarded.
This should pair well with Happening (2021).
Based on the real case: https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affaire_Georges_Segretin
