BARDOT

A TimpelPictures, WonderTime Studios, Agent Double, and Featuristic Films production, with the participation of Pathé Live, in association with Fremantle. Brigitte Bardot is the first French cinema icon to achieve worldwide renown. At once muse, adored star, and committed activist, she embodies a free but sometimes misunderstood woman. Over-loved or unloved, she crossed the spotlight before retiring to La Madrague, fleeing scrutiny and scandal. Today, she reflects on her life of many contrasts: her meteoric rise, her iconic status, her sometimes overly radical statements in her fight for animal rights... Avant-garde in her commitments, she revolutionized the image of women and anticipated ecological struggles, which resonate even more today. In the presence of Alain Berliner and the film crew.
