Wow... I missed the original post of this movie... It looks pretty good, has anyone downloaded and watched it yet that can give us any more details? (Like the ages of the girls that the lead character teaches, any OT scenes, ect... )

The girls are ok, but no OT scenes

In this film, the characters of Anne and Lucie at the age of 13 are played by Morgane Moré (born in 1984) and Nina Meurisse (born in 1988 according to IMDb). Meurisse has two controversial scenes in the film, which she recently talked about, calling them traumatizing.

As you can see, the actress says she was 10-years-old at the time, but according to the film's director Patricia Mazuy, she was 12.
("C’est un rôle qui peut être très destructeur. Au moment du tournage, de janvier à mars 1999, Nina avait toutjuste 12 ans et son enfance la protégeait encore… ")

Based on her appearance in this movie, I think she was actually 12 and therefore her birth year was 1986.

The trailer of the film is here - https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x80jp6t
It looks interesting. Is there a higher quality version available?

I doubt Nina Meurisse lied in front of a Parliamentary commission. If I was testifying in front of the US Congress and misstated my age I guarantee someone (probably from the party that was unhappy about my testimony) would say, according to our records your date of birth is [redacted ], is that correct? Telling a lie about anything goes to your credibility as a witness. Somebody on the committee would've brought up any discrepancy in Nina's statements.

The press kit for the film could contain minor errors like this, if whatever media consultants put it together either had wrong information or made a simple typo. I doubt the director lied since ... 10, 12, what difference does it make? Still a little girl. I haven't been able to find the scene she's talking about but I did download a copy of Saint-Cyr (2000) and I can believe Nina was 10 at the time. Those Victorian style dresses make all the girls look a little older than they are.

If anyone can find a better quality version of this movie, that would be appreciated!

The controversial scenes are at 1:10:28 and at 1:29:20.
It also seems strange to me that she lied in front of a Parliamentary commission, but I cannot believe the girl on the right in this photo was only 10 years old.

Here's what's written in the biography of director Patricia Mazuy:
"Elle avait 11 ans lors du casting et 12 au moment du tournage , mais ça nous mettait dans l'époque de lui faire jouer une jeune pensionnaire de 15 ans ."
(https://books.google.com/books?id=bsOWE ... &pg=PA1997)

More, if you search on Google with the name "Nina Meurisse" and "38 ans" (that is, the age she would be today if she were born in 1986), you will find many articles, including the one below in which she herself says "Pourtant, j’ai 38 ans".
(https://www.programme-television.org/ne ... ue-4736205)

I think in short that we are faced with one of those cases (like that of Florence Pernel) in which somewhere the wrong date was written and then spread everywhere because the various sites copy each other. The actress is fine with that because if she is believed to be younger she certainly has the possibility of having more roles.

Okay, according to Nina's testimony she was (at the time of the hearing last December) 38 years old. Assuming the November date of birth is accurate she would've been 13 when the movie premiered. She also said she was 10 when cast for the role. IMDb doesn't list filming dates and a brief search doesn't turn up anything useful in that regard.

Period pieces with elaborate sets and costumes are usually front heavy, pre-production takes a lot longer than post-production (unlike special effects films which tend to have lengthy post periods). That doesn't mean a film like Saint-Cyr can't have a delayed release anyway. Just that it doesn't usually work that way. The question is, did this movie start shooting quickly after casting, did a year or two go by, or did it get stuck for a while in development hell after production was basically complete? Does Patricia Mazuy ever say when filming occurred?
