Dear Paris (In French : Paradis Paris) is a French film directed by Marjane Satrapi and released in 2024. The movie is a black comedy where characters are faced with death.
In Paris, several people connected in one way or another to death cross paths. Giovanna Bianchi (Monica Bellucci), a narcissistic and successful Italian opera singer, wakes up at a morgue to realise that only few people have paid respects for her death. Meanwhile, Mike (Ben Aldridge), a British stuntman, questions his job following an accident with his son. An eccentric elderly Colombian lady named Dolores (Rossy de Palma), the grandmother of a teenage girl, makes a pact with Death to stay alive longer, while a suicidal teenager named Marie-Cerise (Charline Balu-Emane) is kidnapped, forcing her to talk with her captor in a way she could not do with her therapist. Another character, Édouard Emmard (André Dussollier), the presenter of a famous true-crime television program, is considering his own death. [3] [4] [2]
