November 20 -2:00 PM - 4:00 PM
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 fearsome cartel leader Emilia (Karla Sofía Gascón) enlists Rita (Zoe Saldaña), an unappreciated lawyer stuck in a dead-end job, to help fake her death so that Emilia can finally live authentically as her true self. [2024, France, 132 min, Rated: R]
Adam Graham of the Detroit News pens, “Emilia Pérez is constantly shaking things up, and it’s bursting with ideas and creativity that make other movies look like they’re moving at half speed.
