Prior to his arrival, Maïwenn kicked off the publicity event by expressing her moving response to last night’s premiere. “It’s a film I’ve been thinking about for 17 years,” the filmmaker said. “There was a huge amount of emotion because the film also released in France, so it was double the amount of pressure.”
