Details
Paris, 1953. Chanteuse, painter and artists' model Alice Prinn - better known as the notorious Kiki of Montparnasse - has reached the squalid end of a truly remarkable life. Portrayed by the inimitable Christine Bovill (Piaf, Paris, Tonight You Belong to Me) she relives her glory days in the Roaring Twenties and reflects on her subsequent decline and fall. Kiki employs the infectious sounds of chanson, jazz and French music hall to tell the poignant, and often funny, tale of a woman who made her own way in a man's world and rose to be Queen of the Demimonde.
