Here’s a synopsis of the film: 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 (Gascón) enlists Rita (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.
Adriana Paz and Edgar Ramírez also star.
Variety is calling the film one of Netflix’s “big Oscar contenders” this coming year!
The film will hit theaters on November 1 and will hit Netflix on November 13.
