PODCAST| Nicolò Comotti interviews Nicole Palo, director of the film Emma Peeters.
Director Nicole Palo returns after almost ten year since her first feature Get Born with her new film Emma Peeters. Emma Peeters, starring Monia Chokri, is an intelligent comedy that touches existential dilemmas with wit and humour. Emma Peeters is the closing film for the Giornate degli Autori, the independent section of Venezia 75.
Emma Peeters will soon be 35 and has yet to accomplish something. After years of hardships in Paris trying to become an actress, an idea strikes her fancy: bringing her days to an end in a week’s time, on her birthday. In the process Emma meets Alex Bodart, a fanciful funeral home employee who will help her in her reckless endeavor. By dint of hard work to hide their respective feelings, it seems they may succeed in bringing about Emma’s final objective.
