Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Claire (Lou de Laâge) works at her late father’s hotel with her stepmother, Maud (Isabelle Huppert). To no fault of her own, Claire drives Maud mad with jealously, culminating in her eviction when Maud finds out that her young lover has taken an interest in Claire. Banished to a local farm, Claire can live life without the shackles of her strict upbringing and find company through encounters with seven princes. Anne Fontaine directs this modern reimagining of the Brothers Grimm Snow White fairy tale. ~ Travis Norris, Rovi

When Claire, a beautiful but reserved young woman unwittingly provokes the furious jealousy of her evil stepmother Maud, life as she knows it is over. Sent far away from home, Claire awakens, both figuratively and literally, in a small village in the French mountains. As if by magic, her formerly shy demeanor is gone and she is suddenly aware of her feminine power. It's the beginning of a radical emancipation. As Claire meets the locals and starts to take joy in her sexuality, soon one, two, three... seven men fall under her charm. For the first time in her life she allows herself to indulge in no-strings sex, taking pride in belonging to no one. But then Maud arrives wanting to reconnect, and Claire must decide who to trust, her sophisticated but cold stepmother, or the circle of adoring men that now surround her.
