Deerskin

A man's obsession with his designer deerskin jacket causes him to blow his life savings and turn to crime. In this black comedy of middle-aged masculinity gone awry, Academy Award winner Jean Dujardin (The Artist) is a recent divorcee who becomes obsessed with a vintage fringed deerskin jacket that begins to exert an uncanny hold on him. Set in a sleepy French alpine village, he falls into the guise of an independent filmmaker and befriends a trusting bartender and aspiring editor (Adèle Haenel, Cesar Award winner) who becomes his collaborator on a movie that will document a surprising new goal he sets himself.
