The Emilia Perez film and its soundtrack are heading to the Oscars

The 97th Academy Awards will take place on March 3, 2025 in Los Angeles, the film Emilia Perez by Jacques Audiard will represent France in the Best Foreign Film category.

The voice of Zoé Saldana in The Allegation (the allegation to power, to violence) immerses us in the blood-red musical universe of the film Emilia Perez. This soundtrack required four intense years of work from the singer Camille and her companion, the arranger and producer Clément Ducol.
The two artists were involved from the start in the tortuous creative process of Jacques Audiard who especially did not want a series of musical sequences, the songs therefore took charge of the narration, weaving the framework of this musical thriller. The soundtrack holds nothing back, and looks to rock like mariachi Music or reggaeton, the essential sound of this part of the globe, with angry slams and heartbreaking laments.

Camille wrote the songs in Spanish, providing backing vocals, refining the Mexican accents, sometimes with the help of AI to fix the vocal placements.

The title The Evil with the voices of Zoé Saldana, Karal Sofia Gascon and Camille:

Each of the actresses performed their own score, coached by Camille and Clément Ducol who were not looking for vocal prowess but for vulnerability and the roughness of their voices. Beyond a powerful work on transidentity, the notes and songs ofEmilia Perez sound like magnificent pleas for love and justice. Long live Emilia!

A digital version of the soundtrack is available, it brings together 43 titles with dialogues and sounds to immerse yourself in the world ofEmilia Perez. The film is available for streaming on Netflix, see you on March 3, 2025 for the Oscars ceremony.
