SAINT LAURENT PRODUCTIONS PRESENTS: EMILIA PEREZ - A Film by Jacques Audiard

17 Jan 2025

Under the creative direction of Anthony Vaccarello, Saint Laurent Productions ventures into the cinematic realm with Emilia Perez, a bold and transformative narrative exploring identity, power, and redemption. Directed by acclaimed filmmaker Jacques Audiard, the film delves into the life of Rita, a brilliant yet disillusioned lawyer navigating the morally ambiguous corridors of a corporate legal firm.

Rita’s life takes an unexpected turn when she crosses paths with Manitas, a notorious cartel leader with a clandestine dream. Worn down by the violence and deception of his criminal empire, Manitas enlists Rita to help him escape his life of crime and embrace a profound, long-held truth: his desire to become the woman he has always yearned to be.

With a screenplay rich in emotional depth and social commentary, Emilia Perez is brought to life by a stellar ensemble cast. Featuring the captivating performances of Zoe Saldaña, Karla Sofía Gascón, Selena Gomez, Adriana Paz, and Edgar Ramirez, the film is a testament to the complexity of identity and the courage it takes to transform against all odds.

Anthony Vaccarello's artistic influence permeates the film’s visual narrative, with Saint Laurent’s iconic aesthetic lending a bold elegance to the storytelling. Emilia Perez is not just a film; it’s a cinematic statement of individuality, self-discovery, and the power of reinvention.

This groundbreaking collaboration between Jacques Audiard and Saint Laurent Productions redefines the boundaries of fashion and film, cementing Saint Laurent’s role as a visionary force in contemporary culture.

Emilia Perez invites viewers on a journey of transformation, resilience, and the unyielding pursuit of authenticity.
