Rachida Brakni
Currently a member of the Comedie Francaise, Brakni recently won a Molière for Best New Stage Actress for her role as Queen Maria in Victor Hugo's Ruy Blas. She began her stage career in 1997 in a live theater performance of Richard III. For her performance in the play The Kiss in the Night she was awarded the Sylvia Monfort First Tragedy Prize.
In 1998, Brakni appeared in a short film titled Voiles, and began her work in feature films in 1999 with Henri Duparc's Une couleur café, followed by Andre Techine's Loin (2001). After Chaos she filmed a role in Marie-France Pisier's Comme un avion (Like an Airplane, 2002).
A recent graduate of the National Conservatory of Dramatic Art, Brakni was still a student when she was cast in Chaos. There were a lot of very good actresses, says Serreau, but Rachida was the obvious choice.
