The New Adventures of Cinderella

"The New Adventures of Cinderella" (Les Nouvelles Aventures de Cendrillon, 2017) is a French comedy you can watch online on iFILM. Marilou Berry plays Julie, who is having a birthday no one remembered — and whose day takes a turn when Marco, the man she's quietly been in love with for years, drops off his infuriating son because the babysitter cancelled.

Alone with a difficult child and nothing to do, Julie tells him the story of Cinderella. Her version. Director Lionel Steketee plays the parallel deadpan: a woman treated like a servant in real life, narrating a fairy tale about a woman treated like a servant. Small, dry, and very French.
