Si je meurs, ce sera de joie
If I Die, It'll Be of Joy
Micheline, Frances and Yves are members of GreyPRIDE, a French organisation targeting ageism in the LGBTQIA+ community. As they work together on a theatre production, they reflect on their desires in this phase of their lives. Creative flair and deep care combine in Alexis Taillant’s documentary, making IF I DIE, IT'LL BE OF JOY a delightful portrait of life. (Grace Barber-Plentie, BFI Flare)
