Actress Judith Godrèche was interviewed before the Senate women’s rights delegation on the morning of Thursday February 29. She calls for the creation of a commission of inquiry against sexual and gender-based violence in the cinema industry.
Judith Godrèche was heard for almost two hours by the Senate women’s rights delegation on Thursday February 29. Once again, the actress denounced the silence on sexual violence in the world of cinema. According to her, there is an emergency. “Everyone knows”she assured.
The actress says she has received 4,500 reports of sexual violence
Since the complaints filed against directors Benoît Jacquot and Jacques Doillon, Judith Godrèche says she has received 4,500 testimonies of sexual violence. She therefore asked the women’s rights delegation to “set up a commission of inquiry against sexual and gender-based violence in the cinema industry”. The actress also paid tribute to judge Édouard Durand, former head of the independent commission on sexual violence against children, ousted from the body three months ago. An unjustified decision according to Judith Godreche.
