PEACHES GOES BANANAS
a film by Marie Losier
France – Belgium, 2025, 73′
v.o. Italian subtitles
For the past seventeen years, Marie Losier has been filming singer Peaches—queen of punk-electro and queer feminist icon.
Between sold-out concerts, her close bond with her sister Suri, and the staging of her first opera, Peaches is constantly reinventing herself, pushing boundaries and breaking them down.
On and off stage, this film offers an intimate portrait of an inspiring performer who shatters taboos with boundless energy and who, by embracing every stage of life, has transformed her own body into art.
