An intimate and epic portrait of an extraordinary woman who eminently challenged and transformed her era defending a humanist message still keenly relevant today.
After exploring the lives of Édith Piaf and Grace Kelly, Olivier Dahan offers an intimate and epic portrait of another singular woman who eminently challenged and transformed her era, defending a humanist message still keenly relevant today. The canvas covers her major political battles, from the concentration camps to the National Assembly, where she changed the status of women forever by decriminalising abortions.
"One of the most anticipated films of the year."
