🎞️ ABOUT THE FILM:

EMILIA PÉREZ | EMILIA PÉREZ

dir. Jacques Audiard, France, USA, Mexico 2024, 133’

🇵🇱 One of the hottest titles of the year, an Oscar favorite and a hit from the last Cannes festival, from which 'Emilia Pérez' left with the Jury Prize and the Best Actress Award, awarded – exceptionally – to the entire four-member female cast of the film (Zoe Saldaña, Selena Gomez, Karla Sofía Gascón, Adriana Paz). Jacques Audiard's new film ('Paris, 13th District', 'A Prophet') is an exhilarating spectacle set in Mexico that constantly transforms: from a thriller to a classic melodrama, from a musical to an emotional story in the spirit of Almodóvar. For the fearless and dancing 'Emilia Pérez' is a tale of freedom from all conventions and the spectacular transformation that the world needs today.

The change begins with lawyer Rita (Zoe Saldaña), disillusioned with the law that defends the strongest – ruthless, wealthy men. But one day Rita receives a surprising proposal from one of them: to be a companion on the road to redemption. In this risky journey, she will meet three women ready for anything, who in a violent macho society want to listen to their hearts. The time has come to turn revenge into restitution, contempt into compassion, and fear into trust. 'Emilia Pérez' convinces that it is time for the world to stop being black and white.

🇬🇧 Mexico, today. Overqualified and exploited, lawyer Rita is wasting her talents working for a large firm far better at whitewashing criminal garbage than serving justice. But an unexpected way out appears, the sort of offers you can't refuse: to help feared cartel boss Juan 'Little Hands' Del Monte - aka Manitas - retire from his business and disappear forever. Manitas has a plan he's been fine-tuning in secret for years: to become, at last, the woman he's always dreamed of becoming.
