PODCAST | Chiara Nicoletti interviews Káta Weber, scriptwriter of the film Pieces of a Woman.

“This film is a warning: if inequality is not addressed by civic means, and if all dissenting voices are silenced, chaos ensues”. Mexican director Michel Franco explains in these few sentences the whole meaning of his new dystopian thriller Nuevo Orden, in competition at the 77th Venice Film Festival. According to Franco, the film is set in a possible future as nobody is safe and ambiguity is key. Nuevo Orden is not a J’accuse against military groups and/or the elite but instead we are equally part of sick mechanism where there’s no sense of community. The film, says Franco, doesn’t want to send a message but to act as a warning.

Pieces of a Woman: Martha and Sean Carson are a Boston couple on the verge of parenthood whose lives change irrevocably during a home birth at the hands of a flustered midwife, who faces charges of criminal negligence. Thus begins a year-long odyssey for Martha, who must navigate her grief while working through fractious relationships with her husband and her domineering mother, along with the publicly vilified midwife whom she must face in court. Pieces of a Woman is a deeply personal, searing domestic aria in exquisite shades of grey and an ultimately transcendent story of a woman learning to live alongside her loss.
