We have another of our Soundtracking Everyman Film Club shows for you today, which we thought we'd share as a bonus episode to mark the extraordinary recognition the musical drama Emilia Perez has received. Landing a whopping 13 Oscar nominations, Emilia Perez tells the story of a Mexican lawyer who is offered an unusual job of helping a notorious cartel boss retire and transition into living as a woman. Edith was lucky enough to be joined at Everyman Broadgate by writer / director Jacques Audiard, Zoe Saldana - who plays the lawyer, Rita - and Clement Ducol and Camille, who collaborated on the music. Since Jacques doesn't speak great English, we also had translator Sophie on stage, so thank you in advance for you patience as first he gives his answers and then she relays them to us.
