The screenplay is by Claire Denis and Marie NDiaye, with cinematography by Yves Cape; the cast includes Isabelle Huppert, Christopher Lambert and Nicolas Duvauchelle.

Huppert plays a working-class housewife who helps a neighbour with an abortion and soon realises she has struck gold, running a thriving business until her husband, back from a prisoner-of-war camp and financially as well as sexually superfluous, betrays her to the authorities. The film, which sparked fierce protests in France on release, is considered Chabrol's strongest of the 1980s – utterly unsentimental and masterful in its mise en scène.", "url": "https://noky.io/en/zurich/events/une-affaire-de-femmes-97674/", "official_url": "https://www.filmpodium.ch/film/172683", "image": "https://noky.io/images/baf1d470d958e48988273aa775bd40e63ace0a29bfbf24cf2f3054a1acb9cd37-2000.webp"}, {"title": "Malina", "start": "2026-11-13T15:00:00+01:00", "end": null, "place": "Filmpodium", "address": "Nüschelerstrasse 11, 8001 Zürich", "price": "", "price_from": "9.00", "price_to": "18.00", "category": "film", "tags": ["film/drama", "literature/adaptation"], "description": "«Malina» is a feature film by Werner Schroeter from 1991.
