Le Derrière est un film français réalisé par Valérie Lemercier, sorti en 1999.

Synopsis

Frédérique Arroux (Valérie Lemercier), une jeune femme de la campagne, décide, à la mort de sa mère, de se rendre à Paris dans l'espoir de retrouver son père (Claude Rich), qu'elle n'a jamais connu. Découvrant que celui-ci, riche notable, vit avec un homme (Dieudonné), elle décide de se faire passer pour un garçon, pensant qu'elle sera ainsi mieux acceptée. Mais ses manières efféminées conduisent son père à penser que ce fils qu'il découvre est lui aussi homosexuel. S'ensuivent une série de quiproquos, alors que le père de Frédérique est de plus en plus embarrassé par son étrange « fils ».

In the autumn of 1654, an escaped slave seeks refuge at a convent in southern France. After the nuns take him in, his pursuers break into the convent and assault the nuns, searching for the slave. After wounding the mother superior (Pascale Roberts), they close in on their prey. One feisty novitiate, Eloise (Sophie Marceau)—the daughter of the renowned swordsman D'Artagnan (Philippe Noiret) of the famed Three Musketeers—stands up to the intruders, but is shoved aside as they ride off after the frightened slave, who escaped from the evil Duke Crassac de Merindol. Eloise finds a blood-stained piece of paper (a simple laundry list) that the slave used to stop a bleeding wound, and believes it holds some secret code. Later, Eloise is with the mother superior when she dies from her wound. Swearing a sacred oath to avenge her and dressed in men's clothes, Eloise sets out for Paris to elicit the help of her father in tracking down the murderers.
