Emilia Pérez Q&A with Writer/Producer/Director Jacques Audiard & Editor Juliette Welfling (Zoom Event)
Zoom/Online see event description for link details, CA, United StatesPicturehouse 441 and ACE are proud to be partnering on a series of live virtual Q&As as part of our mutual efforts to promote film literacy.
Join us for a Q&A with writer/producer/director Jacques Audiard & editor Juliette Welfling, as they discuss their 2024 French musical crime comedy Emilia Pérez. Maverick filmmaker Jacques Audiard returned to the director’s chair this year with Emilia Pérez which tells the story of a Mexican drug lord who, with the help of a kind lawyer, decides to leave their violent past behind and become their true self by transitioning into Emilia Pérez. It’s a crime thriller and a family drama … and a musical. With committed performances from its entire cast including Karla Sofía Gascón, Zoe Saldaña, Selena Gomez, and Adriana Paz, who all shared the Cannes Best Actress Prize, Emilia Pérez proves to be a humane, touching work that’s further electrified by Audiard’s longtime editor, Juliette Welfling. Emilia Pérez is a film that walks several fine lines, pulling off a cinematic tightrope act that ranks as one of 2024’s most audacious and successful achievements.
