Marinette
Fresh from its world premiere at Tribeca and on the back of Australia hosting the World Cup, Marinette is a moving, intimate journey into the life of French soccer legend Marinette Pichon.
Spanning three decades, from her turbulent childhood to playing for the French national team, Marinette’s story is deeply compelling both off and on the field. Between her ambitions to put women’s sport on the map, to her desire to live openly as a queer woman, this film is an ambitious yet personal tale of one woman’s courage to pursue her dreams. Garance Marillier (Titane) astounds in the titular role, bringing to life an incredible woman whose story will inspire fans and non-fans alike.
