PODCAST – Meet Rebecca Zlotowski, Director of Other Kids with Virgin Efira

Other People’s Children, Rebecca Zlotowski’s new movie with Virgin Efira and Roshdi Zem, will melt you! Listen to our podcast interview with its writer and director Rebecca Zlotowski. The film hits theaters this Wednesday.

Recently selected at the Venice Film Festival, where it received a very warm reception, Children of Others, Rebecca Zlotowski’s 5th feature, arrives in theaters this Wednesday to very good press reviews.

For this new film, undoubtedly the most personal of its writers and directors, Rebecca Zlotowski brings together the unprecedented tandem of Virginie Efira and Roshdi Zem for a romance that is at once thrilling, funny and profound. As the title of the film suggests, it is about other people’s children… The character of a fair and sensitive mother-in-law is at the center of the story. If the character of the mother-in-law has often appeared in the cinema, this time, she is in the foreground, with a nuanced score and a rather unprecedented importance in the cinema, raising questions and issues…

Where did the desire for this story come from? How do you allow yourself, after 4 feature films and a TV series (Les Sauvages, for Canal+, already with Roschdy Zem) to move on to a much more autobiographical project? In our interview in podcast format, Rebecca Zlotowski opens up about her strong desire to touch and allow viewers to identify with a story that can speak to a large audience.

Plot of Les Enfants des autres: Rachel is 40 years old, childless. Loves his life: high school students, friends, ex, guitar lessons. Falling in love with Ali, he becomes involved with Leila, his 4-year-old daughter. He accommodates her, cares for her and loves her as his own. But loving someone else’s children is a risk worth taking…

Children of Others with Virginie Efira and Roshdi Zem hits theaters this Wednesday, September 21, 2022. This is the writer and director’s 5th feature film, following Belle épine (2010), Grand Central (2013), Planetarium (2016). , Simple Girl (2019) and Les Sauvages series for Canal+ (2019).
