Après avoir remporté deux prix à Cannes, le dernier film de Jacques Audiard sort au cinéma ce mercredi 21 août 2024.
Warning, UFO. This Wednesday, August 21, spectators can go to movie theaters to discoverEmilia Perez, Jacques Audiard's latest film. The feature film has already won two awards at Cannes (the female performance prize for its four actresses Zoe Saldaña, Karla Sofía Gascón, Selena Gomez and Adriana Paz, and the jury prize). &agrav; conquer the public.
Emilia Perez is a radical proposal by the French directorç#39;A prophet and Dheepan, since it is a musical drama in Spanish (mostly) that mixes the Mexican cartel and transgender identity. Yes, you read that right. In detail, the feature film follows a lawyer in the midst of an existential crisis who is given a mission by a fearsome Mexican gang leader: to help him disappear and finally become the woman he has always been deep down, Emilia. Crazy but daring, explosive, disconcerting, often moving and surprising, always enjoyable, you will rarely see a feature film like this one.

Story of atonement and second chances, Emilia Pérez, which we saw at the Cannes Film Festival, is very surprising, but the cocktail, as explosive and disconcerting as it is, succeeds in taking hold. Thanks to virtuoso staging and superb photography, Jacques Audiard films the repentance of a gang leader, her liberation through her trans identity, and the evils that tear society apart. Mexican, drug traffickers and corruption in the lead.
In the middle, there are opposing women's journeys that complement and respond to each other until a surprising finale. The heroine played by Spanish actress Karla Sofáa Gascán (herself a transgender woman) is flamboyant in all the nuances of her inner conflict, while Zoe Saldana is remarkable opposite an amazing Selena Gomez, who finally shows that when well directed, she can make sparks.
Far from the standards of the Broadway musical, composers Clément Ducol and Camille have created a punchy soundtrack to make the intimacy of its characters dance on screen. Emilia Pérez is not without its flaws, however, the sung parts are sometimes quite weak and do not echo the power of the mix of voices or the moment, the plot or certain dialogues do not always take off, but we are ready to forgive these imperfections in the face of the pleasure that comes from watching.
Synopsis – Overqualified and overexploited, Rita uses her talents as a lawyer in the service of a large firm more inclined to whitewash criminals than to serve justice. But an unexpected way out opens up for her: to help the cartel leader Manitas retire from business and carry out the plan he has been secretly refining for years: to finally become the woman he has always dreamed of. to be.
