Somewhere between Andy Kaufman and one of many Coen brothers' characters, Florence Minder's American version of herself offers a space to deploy the full range of shames, terrible depressions and life-saving displacements imposed by life's accidents, with a great dose of humor.
“You are as many human beings as the number of languages you speak”said Goethe.
For this heroine in dire straits, this linguistic schizophrenia may well come in handy...With a gun, a wig, some chewing gum, earrings and surtitles, we might even manage to scare off the wolves prowling in the abyss...
