Blonde or Brunette

In the high-society landscape of the mid-1920s, Henri Martel stands as a relic of Victorian rigidity, a man who views his new bride Fanny as a vessel for quiet domesticity. When business calls him away, he leaves his naive wife under the tutelage of Blanche, a woman who breathes the fire of the Jazz Age. What follows is a transformative crash course in the era's vices: the rhythmic rebellion of the Charleston, the sharp sting of spirits, and the haze of tobacco smoke. Henri returns not to a dutiful wife, but to a modern woman he barely recognizes. His reaction is swift and severe, leading to a divorce and a rebound marriage to the very woman who 'corrupted' Fanny. The narrative spirals into a sophisticated comedy of errors when a visiting grandmother necessitates a charade of marital bliss, forcing the estranged couple to confront the reality that their original spark never truly died.
