Amelia Starlight
France2024fiction20'Short Film Competition
Adored by the media and the public, French star Amélia Starlight (starring Emmanuelle Béart) is terminally ill. She withdrew from public life a long time ago. She does not perform, give interviews or meet with anyone. So, when one afternoon, Danielle Villard, a journalist who hosts a popular talk show, listens to a message recorded by the star, she immediately gives up the weekend with her daughter and goes to meet the idolised singer. It turns out that Amélia wants to make another TV appearance, this time live.
