Dear Paris (In French: Paradis Paris) is a 2024 French black comedy film directed by Marjane Satrapi. It was the final film that Satrapi directed prior to her death in June 2026.
In Paris, several people connected in one way or another to death cross paths. Giovanna Bianchi (Monica Bellucci), a narcissistic and successful Italian opera singer, wakes up at a morgue to realise that only few people have paid respects for her death. Meanwhile, Mike (Ben Aldridge), a British stuntman, questions his job following an accident with his son. An eccentric elderly Colombian lady named Dolores (Rossy de Palma), the grandmother of a teenage girl, makes a pact with Death to stay alive longer, while a suicidal teenager named Marie-Cerise (Charline Balu-Emane) is kidnapped, forcing her to talk with her captor in a way she could not do with her therapist. Another character, Édouard Emmard (André Dussollier), the presenter of a famous true-crime television program, is considering his own death.
Dear Paris was released in France on 12 June 2024. The film, whose filming was entirely set and produced in Paris, began in October 2023.
