To celebrate the release of his acclaimed latest, EMILIA PÉREZ, we’re revisiting the intense, visceral films of French auteur Jacques Audiard, whose masterful crime dramas infuse genre conventions with new freshness through their empathetic focus on the marginalized and oppressed. From his early character-driven thrillers READ MY LIPS and THE BEAT THAT MY HEART SKIPPED to DHEEPAN, his explosive, Palme d’Or–winning saga of immigrant struggle on the streets of Paris, Audiard weaves gripping underworld tales with profoundly human centers.
