Overview

• Gérard Depardieu is on trial in Paris for allegations of sexual harassment during the filming of 'Les volets verts' in 2021, involving two women—a decorator and a production assistant.
• Depardieu admitted to touching the decorator on the hip but claimed it was not sexually motivated, stating it was to avoid falling off a box.
• The decorator testified that Depardieu blocked her with his legs, grabbed her hips, made vulgar comments, and held her tightly against her will.
• A second accuser, a production assistant, alleged that Depardieu touched her three times, including on her buttocks and breasts, but not under her clothing.
• Depardieu denies all allegations of sexual harassment, claiming to be a victim of media persecution, while his defense lawyer argues the accusations are fabricated.
