In the wake of International Women’s Day on March 8, we are pleased to present Divertimento, a vibrant French drama that celebrates determination, sisterhood, and the transformative power of music. Directed by Marie-Castille Mention-Schaar, the film is inspired by the true story of conductor Zahia Ziouani and her twin sister, who dared to challenge conventions to make classical music accessible to all. Both moving and uplifting, Divertimento highlights perseverance, passion, and the courage to follow one’s calling against the odds.
