Le Brio is a 2017 French comedy film directed by Yvan Attal.[3]

Plot

Neïla lives in the Paris suburb Créteil with her mother and grandmother. She enrolls herself into Panthéon-Assas University in the hopes of becoming a lawyer, but meets with public humiliation tainted with racism from the controversial professor Mazard when she arrives late for one of his lectures. The incident finds its way online, and the dean of the law school catches wind of the incident and steps in, only to task the professor, as a means to make amends, to mentor Neïla for an upcoming debating/public speaking contest. Although Neïla finds Mazard cynical and exacting, she learns from him, and both of them have to overcome their prejudices during the course of working together.
