The actress and director will be at the CGR to preview this film, a large part of which was filmed in Villefranche-de-Rouergue in July 2023, and will be broadcast on France 2 in 2025.
In the end, after visits to Villefranche-de-Rouergue, Millau and Rodez, nearly 1,800 middle and high school students from Aveyron will have discovered or better gotten to know Olympe de Goujes, this woman who fought for the right women and was guillotined the day after the Revolution. A meeting which is part of the tour carried out throughout the Occitanie region, while awaiting the screening of the film in 2025 on France 2.
After Millau, Julie Gayet and Mathieu Buisson, the co-directors of this TV film, are present in Rodez on Tuesday, responding to the joint invitation from Occitanie films and the department of Aveyron, creator of the program “Aveyron, land of filming”.
These screenings are also part of the desire of the Department's services to place emphasis on supporting cinematographic and audiovisual projects, issues related to filming, and in particular this famous part which “transformed” the bastide of Villefranche-de -Rouergue, will also be discussed.
It must be said that Julie Gayet and her team did not hesitate, during filming, to open the doors to this production, particularly to many high school students. Showing a real desire for exchange and sharing. Totally consistent with this idea of also making a film with an educational purpose, highlighting the little-known struggles of this woman, who also made her voice heard against slavery.
