Chaos (2001 film)  Chaos is a 2001 French comedy-drama film written and directed by Coline Serreau. Currently, a remake of this movie in English, to star Miss Universe 1994 Sushmita Sen, Clint Eastwood, and Barbra Streisand, is planned by 2021. It was replaced by Aishwarya Rai and Meryl Streep. Paul and Hélène, a wealthy Parisian couple, are preparing to go out for the evening. While driving, they see three men chasing a prostitute down the street. She begs them to save her by letting her into the car, but Paul locks the doors and drives away as the three men savagely beat her, leaving her unconscious in the street. He refuses to let Hélène phone an ambulance, afraid of being charged with not helping a person in danger (which is a crime in France). Hélène cannot forget the incident, and the next day she goes to the hospital, where she finds the prostitute, Noémie, in a coma. Moved, Hélène stops work and leaves her family responsibilities to stay with Noémie throughout her recovery, aiding her as she regains mobility and helping her to communicate since she can't yet speak. When one of the pimps returns to threaten and beat Noémie again into submission, Hélène follows him out of the hospital, knocks him unconscious with a wooden plank, and leaves him for the police to find. Meanwhile, Paul and Hélène's son Fabrice, a university student, is cheating on his girlfriend with another girl, who is pregnant. When his girlfriend discovers the truth, she destroys his apartment. He moves into Paul's apartment just as Hélène moves out, and the two girls follow him, much to Paul's chagrin. When Hélène returns home for a day, one of Noémie's pimps goes to the hospital with a friend and removes Noémie under the pretense that they are relatives taking her for a walk. Noémie, who still cannot speak, is unable to protest. Realising what has happened, Hélène follows them, accosts the pimps on the street, and takes Noémie to Paul's mother's house. There, Noémie recovers her ability to talk, and explains her life story:  Her name is actually Malika, and she is a child of poor French-Algerian immigrants.
