Gemma Bovery

Life imitates art in uncanny ways when Gemma Bovery and her husband Charles move to a charming old farmhouse in the very same Norman village where Flaubert’s classic novel Madame Bovary was written a century earlier. Local baker and Flaubert expert Martin Joubert becomes entranced with Gemma; it doesn't take long before he is drawing parallels between the literary and real life women. Gemma catches the eye of a handsome local playboy, and when her magnetic ex suddenly reappears, she seems to be fulfilling Joubert's worst fears that her destiny is linked to that of Flaubert’s doomed heroine.
