La fin de Monte-Carlo

In the opulent, yet morally precarious, world of 1920s Monte Carlo, Élise de Valois (Jeanne Marie-Laurent), a woman of grace and formidable spirit, finds her aristocratic existence unraveling. Her husband, the charismatic but fatally reckless Monsieur de Valois (Georges de La Noë), succumbs to the casino's siren call, systematically squandering their family's once-impregnable fortune. As the specter of financial ruin looms, Élise uncovers a sinister undercurrent: the machinations of Armand Dubois (Jean Angelo), a ruthless financier who seeks to exploit their vulnerability for his own gain, threatening not only their wealth but their very social standing. Élise is thrust into a desperate struggle, navigating a labyrinth of societal judgment, betrayal, and personal sacrifice, all while battling to preserve her family’s honor against the backdrop of Monte Carlo’s glittering, unforgiving facade.
