Second World War. Marie is a 30-year-old housewife. Acting by solidarity, she will help her neighbour Lucie to get rid of an unpleasant burden. But due to the tough times people go through, this soon becomes the real job of Marie: husbands, prisoners of war, one night stand liaisons, or even guilty relations with soldiers from the German Army, Marie gets caught up in the mess, and procures abortion against money. In June 1943, Marie the abortionist is sentenced to death by Criminal Court. On the 31st of July that same year, the knife of guillotine will execute one of the last women condemned to death in France.
The New Year is more than just a date change on the calendar. It often marks a turning point where the weight of past experiences is felt or the uncertainty of the future is faced. This season, Pera Film highlights films that delve into themes of hope, regret, nostalgia, and new beginnings.
Giorgio de Chirico was born on July 10, 1888, in Volos, Greece, to an Italian family. His mother, Gemma Cervetto, was from a family of Genoa origin, but most likely she was born in Izmir. His father, Evaristo, was born on June 21, 1841 in the Büyükdere district of Istanbul.
