Emma Bovary

In 1857, the writer Gustave Flaubert was on trial for insulting public and religious morals. In court, the prosecution and the defense are ready to clash. At the center of the debates, Madame Bovary: it is she who is actually being judged. The pleading begins then the novel comes to life. Emma's story unfolds as the trial progresses, recounting the debate that then agitated France about the condition of women at that time. What sentence for Flaubert? What sentence for women?
