Monica Bellucci, André Dussollier, Rossy de Palma, Roschdy Zem and Alex Lutz will all go to Paradise (trailer)

Marjane Satrapi's new film, Paradis Paris, will be released in theaters on June 12.

“In the lively and cosmopolitan streets of Paris, (d)estines intertwine and respond to each other, connected to each other by universal figures of everyday life: a cleaning lady, a cop, a cafe owner. What if, faced with death, the best thing was to live?

“A forgotten singer, a teenager in crisis, a makeup artist in love, a philosophical cafe owner, this is the Paris of Marjane Satrapi”, introduces the trailer for Paradise Paris. Seen through these faces eaten away by mourning, depression or the anguish of a finitude which always ends up imposing itself on us, the City of Lights seems to be the setting for an anxious pantomime through which Marjane Satrapi returns to its cartoonish roots.

With this fundamentally pop cinematic object, Marjane Satrapi signs her sixth feature film as a director. A career that began in 2007 with Persepolisadapted from his own comic strip, and awarded the Jury Prize at the Cannes Film Festival, and the Césars for Best First Film and Best Adaptation the following year.

After Radioactive in 2019, in which Rosamund Pike brings Marie Curie back to life from her ashes surrounded by Sam Riley And Anya Taylor-Joythe Franco-Iranian filmmaker returns to a lighter cinema, mixing dramatic situations and the absurdity of the dialogues.

For this choral film, Marjane Satrapi called on an impressive cast: Monica Bellucci, Ben Aldridge, Rossy de Palma, André Dussollier, Roschdy Zem, Alex Lutz lead this macabre dance, accompanied by Eduardo Noriega, Gwendal Marimoutou, Charline Balu-Emane, Thomas Bernier, Martina Garcia And Romeo Grialou.
