Absolument fabuleux (2001, France)

Safrane and the transvestite share a cell Feature film farce based on characters in the British sitcom Absolutely Fabulous, more or less faithfully transposed into France. The series is something of a minor cult in France, and the film concatenates some plot ideas from episodes of the series.

After a misunderstanding between the police and the women over some suspicious white powder, Safrane too ends up in jail temporarily, sharing a cell with a transvestite, in the credits as "travesti prison", played by Arielle Schalekamp in her first film role.
