Brussels-based sales agent Be For Films has secured international sales rights to “Love Me Tender,” Anna Cazenave Cambet’s sophomore feature starring Vicky Krieps, which has landed a slot in the Un Certain Regard section at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival.

Based on Constance Debré’s novel, the film follows Clémence (Krieps), whose life is dramatically upended when her ex-husband files to strip her of custody of their son after she reveals she’s had relationships with women. The narrative chronicles her years-long battle to defend her right to be both a mother and a woman free to make her own choices.

The cast includes Antoine Reinartz, Monia Chokri, Vigo Ferrera-Redier, Aurélia Petit, Ji-min Park, and Salif Cissé alongside Krieps. The film’s crew includes cinematographer Kristy Baboul, composer Maxence Dussere, editor Joris Laquittant, sound designer Marlette Mathieu-Goudier, casting director Youna de Peretti, and costume designer Vanessa Deutsch.

“Love Me Tender” is produced by Novoprod Cinéma,...
