From renegade auteur Jacques Audiard comes Emilia Pérez, an audacious fever dream that defies genres and expectations. Through liberating song and dance and bold visuals, this odyssey follows the journey of four remarkable women in Mexico, each pursuing their own happiness. The double Cannes-winning film stars Zoe Saldaña, Selena Gomez, Adriana Paz, Édgar Ramírez, and Karla Sofía Gascón in a tremendous, barrier-breaking performance.
Like an electrifying telenovela, Emilia Pérez takes you on an incendiary visual and auditory journey that’s best experienced, not explained. Audiard, who’s best known for acclaimed pictures such as Rust and Bone, A Prophet, and Dheepan, has given us a gift of a film—an intoxicating crime musical about acceptance, redemption, and rebirth.
