About the Event
Another masterpiece of French cinema with Brigitte Bardot.
La vérité (The Truth) is a 1960 French legal drama starring Brigitte Bardot as Dominique Marceau, a young, rebellious woman on trial for murdering her lover, Gilbert Tellier, an ambitious conductor, in a crime of passion that may have involved a suicide pact. Through flashbacks revealed during the intense courtroom battle between prosecutors and defense attorneys, the film explores Dominique's troubled life, her clashes with a judgmental society, and her tumultuous affair with Gilbert, ultimately questioning societal hypocrisy and the true nature of truth and justice.
