BIOGRAPHY
Fascinated by the world of entertainment from an early age, Caroline Ducey – whose real name is Trousselard – joined a theater class at the age of 8 and also took classical dance lessons. Responding to a casting announcement posted in her high school, she landed her first film role in 1994 in Too Much Happiness by Cédric Kahn , a chronicle on adolescence, produced as part of the Arte collection All the Boys and Girls of their age . A student at the Marseille Conservatory during her final year, she enrolled in hypokhâgne after the baccalaureate. Between two plays, she plays a young girl in conflict with her parents in Familles, je vous hai (1997).
Caroline Ducey gained notoriety in 1999 thanks to the sulphurous Romance by Catherine Breillat , a crude and theoretical work in which she partnered with porn star Rocco Siffredi . Luminous and moving in the role of a young woman who sets out to discover her sexuality, she received a nomination for the César for Most Promising Actor for this audacious composition. Noted in Carrément A L’Ouest (2001), a modern-day marivaudage by Doillon , Caroline Ducey took part in her first films which testify to her curiosity and her taste for adventure: after the medieval drama La Chambre obscura , she traveled the Alps in La Cage (2002), crosses the steppes of Central Asia in the quasi-experimental Shimkent hotel (2003) and sets off on the open sea for the filming of Croisière (2004).
In 2007, she reunited with Catherine Breillat and became the Lady of Pique in the costume drama Une Vie Mistress (2007). In the meantime, she has participated in numerous short films (around twenty since the start of her career), but has also worked on television. She thus plays a hostage journalist in the Canal + Reporters series and becomes friends with Tony the Crazy, a gangster from the Middle, in Les Beaux mecs . Four years after the comedy Le Plaisir de chant , Caroline Ducey finally reappears on the big screen in the muscular Bangkok Renaissance , an action and martial arts film directed by kung-fu champion Jean-Marc Minéo .
