Prima Donna
On Bastille Day 1970, opera soprano Régine Saint Laurent prepares to return to the stage after six years away, following a vocal failure during a performance of an opera composed for her. Her butler Philippe encourages the comeback and an interview. Journalist and aspiring singer André Le Tourner arrives; the maid Marie distrusts him. Régine notices André resembles the tenor who sang opposite her in her earlier opera. As Régine and André become infatuated and sing selections from that score together, she relives the premiere and her later breakdown, reaching a decision about her return.
