Oh, Les Filles!Haut les filles

Synopsis

"What if it wasn't Elvis who invented rock'n'roll, but Edith Piaf when, in 1949 her lover, middleweight champion Marcel Cerdan, died, and she sang her hymn to love and death, Mon Dieu?" Alternating footage and interviews with iconic French female rock stars from the '60s to the present day, the film captures the female rock scene, shining new light on the history of the genre, in the process raising issues of femininity, feminism and gender.
