Pyramide Productions's Fabienne Vonnier is in Cannes wrapping up financing for Tonie Marshall's next title France Boutique, which is to star Karin Viard and Francois Cluzet as a couple specialising in the production of TV home-shopping shows.

France Boutique sees Marshall going back to a comedy in the vein of Venus Beauty Institute which won her four Cesars in 2000.

France Boutique brings together again Venus Institute's production partners which include, along with Vonnier, who is exec producing, Maia Films' Gilles Sandoz and Tabo Tabo Films' Olivier Bomsel. Luxemburg-based Claude Varnego of Samsa Films has also boarded the project.

The film is scheduled to start shooting as of September this year and will be ready for delivery in August 2003.
