   “When I see you, everything in this world seems rose-colour to me!” 

   Do you know what is the strong woman’s love, with “lost dreams”, “men in her life”, and “seduced and betrayed”? Passionate, mad, wild love. Breathtaking love. The love felt by geniuses, people who make history and the legends. 

   The great French singer Edith Piaf, the lead character of La Vie en Rose is exactly that strong, passionate, intense both in work and in love woman. A little Parisian sparrow with magic voice and a Parisian street girl’s temper. Persistent and decisive in any situation prepared for her by a bad fate.

   She got through starvation, alcohol, drugs, her daughter’s death, she lost a man whom she loved, she had numerous lovers... And beyond all of that - the endless need to love and to be loved. To love passionately and devotedly, with all heart and soul. And...a half-dark stage with only one light spotted on a little ugly woman, the sounds of music, and the voice, the voice paralyzing you to guts, a sharp, strong, surprising voice sometimes turning into a scream of her soul. And now the woman is beautiful, not just beautiful, she is amazing, and she has no regrets. Legendary Edith Piaf! Love and singing meant life to her!
