Catherine Deneuve, "perfectly recovered" after a stroke in November, will resume filming on July 6,  De son vivant , which had to be interrupted, Tuesday evening told AFP those around it confirming information from BFMTV.

This film by Emmanuelle Bercot, with whom she has already made two films ( She goes  and La Tête haute ), tells the story of a son (Benoît Magimel) condemned by cancer and of his mother, embodied by Catherine Deneuve, 76 years old.

"She was very lucky"

The day after her hospitalization, her artistic agent had told AFP that the actress had been the victim on the set of a "very limited and therefore reversible ischemic stroke". "Fortunately, she has no motor deficit and must of course take some time to rest," said the same source. During her convalescence, those around her indicated that Catherine Deneuve "reacted well to the treatment and rested".

"She was very lucky to be taken care of very quickly while filming in a hospital where her discomfort occurred," it was added. The actress who recently appeared wearing an alternative anti-Covid mask on the Instagram account of her Parisian florist, was among the signatories of a forum published in early May in Le Monde in favor of the extension of the rights of intermittent workers in the show.
