The ruthless Mexican drug lord Manitas, after a life of violence, decides to leave behind his criminal past and undergo gender confirmation surgery. Returning as Emilia Pérez, she struggles to find a new place in her family’s life while seeking to make a meaningful contribution to society. Boldly blending elements from melodramatic soap operas, musicals, and action films, Jacques Audiard (Rust and Bone, A Prophet) has crafted an unparalleled musical crime thriller. In the role of the transformed drug lord, Karla Sofía Gascón shines, making history as the first openly trans person to win a Best Actor award at Cannes.
