Neither drama nor comedy nor fully a musical, 'Emilia Pérez' transcends traditional narrative filmmaking.
“Emilia Pérez” transcends traditional narrative filmmaking to tell the story of a Mexican cartel leader who hires a lawyer to help her forever disappear and live her dream of transitioning into a woman. The task for cinematographer Paul Guilhaume was lensing a film that’s neither a straight musical, drama nor comedy but all of those things and more.
Musical scenes were designed with ambitious intent, their choreography and lyrics rooted in the characters’ deepest thoughts and visually expressed with fluid camera language. “Jacques’ vision is about movement. How one movement brings you to another movement, how a character brings movement to a fixed frame, or how a moving frame brings movement to a fixed situation,” Guilhaume says.
