Film show: Isabelle Huppert thriller offers entertaining look at modern French politics

We also discuss Alice Diop's documentary "Nous", which explores the incredibly varied lives of the people living along the Parisian commuter train line RER B.

Plus, we look at two films based on real-life scandals. Laurent Cantet's "Arthur Rambo" explores the downfall of a young writer hailed as an integration success story until he's found to have posted hateful comments on social media.

And "Enquête sur un scandale d'État" tells the story of one of France's top anti drug-trafficking cops who is himself accused of involvement in the drug trade.
