Agnes Joui’s “Let It Rain”

The Leonard Lopate Show | Jun 17, 2010

Agnes Jaoui discusses her latest film, “Let It Rain,” which she wrote, directed, and stars in.

It’s a bittersweet comedy about a self-centered feminist writer and workaholic politician who becomes the subject of an amateurish TV documentary on “successful women.” The documentarians’ blunders trigger everyone’s lives to unravel and each character to question their own values.  “Let It Rain,” opens June 18 at Lincoln Plaza Cinema and Angelika Film Center.
