In 2000, she starred in auteur films - "The Captive" and "Camera Obscura", but the public pays attention to her in the role of Christine Papin in the film by Jean-Pierre Denis "Fatal Wounds" (2000), for which Testus receives an award " Cesar "as Best Young Actress. She continued to actively appear in films of various genres, and the film "Fear and Awe" (2002) by Alain Carnot, based on the book by Amelie Notomb, became a new success for Sylvie Testu. Her role as Amelie was awarded the best actress of the French Film Academy (Cesar) and at the Karlovy Vary Film Festival.
