Barkot From Alain Berliner

1h 30, France/Belgium

In the presence of the film team


Brigitte Bardot is the first icon of French cinema that becomes famous worldwide. Both a muse, a worshiped star and a committed activist, embodies a free but sometimes misunderstood woman. Too much loved or badly loved, she moved in the spotlight before she retired to La Madrague and escaped public control and scandals. Today she reflects on the many contrasts of her life: her meteoric increase, her status as an icon and her sometimes radical statements in her struggle for animal rights. As a pioneer in her beliefs, she defined the image of women and expected ecological battles that are more relevant today than ever before.

Why should you see this film?

Because it is rare to hear Brigitte Bardot. The 90-year-old actress has agreed to agree to Alain Berliner for a Tell-All documentary film, which is supported by the contributions by celebrities such as Paul Watson, Claude Lelouch and Naomi Campbell.
