Marianne Farrère, an elderly billionaire woman, gives hundreds of millions of euros to a younger gay artist she is close to. Her daughter files a complaint for abuse of a vulnerable person and a scandal erupts…

La femme la plus riche du monde (The Richest Woman in the World) is loosely based on the real-life figure of Liliane Bettencourt, the late L’Oreal heiress and her daughter, Françoise Bettencourt-Meyers. The character of Marianne is played here with typical cutting wit and seductive charm by the great Isabelle Huppert.
