TRK is thrilled to announce the highly anticipated screening of "Simone: Woman of the Century" directed by Olivier Dahan on October 26 at 8:00pm. This captivating film will be followed by an engaging Q&A session with the talented actress, Elsa Zylberstein.
"Simone: Woman of the Century" is an inspiring film that delves into the extraordinary life of Simone Veil (1927-2017), a trailblazing woman who defied societal norms and made a significant impact on French and European societies. To the French, Veil is one of the most revered public figures of recent history and the film deftly follows her life from a Nazi concentration camp to her astonishing rise to the President of the European Parliament. The film beautifully captures her journey, struggles, and triumphs, showcasing her as a true icon of the century.
Written and directed by Olivier Dahan, this latest film completes the trilogy he began with the Edith Piaf biopic “La Vie en Rose,” starring Marion Cotillard, and “Grace of Monaco,” starring Nicole Kidman. Asked what drew him to the life story of Veil, Dahan explained: “My grandmother, and my father and his brothers, all French Jews born in France, were chased by the French police during the Second World War, but fortunately they avoided being sent to concentration camps. I grew up with that history. That was the first factor which attracted me to this project. At the end, I dedicate the film to my father.”
Attendees will have the opportunity to participate in a Q&A session with the renowned actress, Elsa Zylberstein. Known for her remarkable performances and ability to bring characters to life, Zylberstein will share her insights, experiences, and behind-the-scenes stories from the making of "Simone: Woman of the Century."
We encourage everyone to secure their seats early, as this event is expected to sell out quickly.
