From the slums of Paris to the limelight of New York, Edith Piaf’s
life was a battle to sing and survive, live and love. Raised in poverty,
Edith’s magical voice and her passionate romances and friendships
with the greatest names of the period - Marlene Dietrich, Yves Montand
and others- made her a star all around the world. The true story of
her incredible destiny opens a window onto the artist’s soul and
into a woman’s heart.
The No.1 film in France for 4 weeks cheered by over 5 million viewers.
