About Don't Tell Her

Four cousins couldn't be more different yet share a cheeky code they live by: lie if it saves someone you love. Laura, Eve, Yaël and Anouch are a tight knit quartet who mix sharp banter with schemes, using humor to shield each other from awkward truths. When their younger cousin announces her upcoming wedding, the picture starts to wobble as they uncover a troubling truth about the groom to be: he is not all that faithful. Rather than spill the scandal, the four decide to keep mum and improvise safeguards to spare the bride from heartbreak. What follows is a swirl of mistaken plans, social misreads, and the consequences of choosing silence over honesty, all in good faith.

Directed by Solange Cicurel, Don't Tell Her released in 2017 as a French comedy built from an original screenplay by Jacques Akchoti. The film spotlights a female ensemble navigating modern friendship and family ties, with Cicurel's direction leaning into bright colors, tight framing, and swift pacing.

The film features Jenifer and Camille Chamoux in the lead, with a supporting cast that includes Yaël and Anouch. The production released in markets across Europe, benefiting from a recognizable cast and contemporary themes.

Awards: No major nominations are listed in widely cited award databases. The film exists as a breezy, female driven comedy rather than a prestige award contender. Its charm rests with the ensemble and direction rather than accolades.

Critics have praised the ensemble's warmth and timing, noting a breezy pace and clever gags, while some found the plot familiar and the humor light.
