Alliance Française presents Rosalie

This film is set in 19th-century France and tells the story of Rosalie, a young woman born with a beard who has spent her life hiding her difference. When she marries a café owner unaware of her secret, she makes the bold decision to reveal her true self rather than continue living in shame. Inspired by a true story, the film explores identity, dignity, and the courage to be seen.
Presented in French with English subtitles, this screening is co-curated with Alliance Française Reno-Tahoe which promotes French language and culture in Northern Nevada and collaborates with the Museum to bring distinctive works of French cinema to our community.
