After decades of working in relative obscurity, Violette Leduc exploded onto the French literary scene in 1964 with the publication of her taboo-breaking memoir, The Bastard. Bringing together archival footage, interviews with friends and scholars, and the author's own writing, director Esther Hoffenberg crafts a portrait of Leduc's literary legacy and complex internal life.
