SoundScape Cinema Series: La Vie En Rose

The life of legendary French singer Édith Piaf is brought to the screen in an outdoor showing at SoundScape Park.

SoundScape Cinema Series: La Vie En Rose takes place Wednesday, March 4 at SoundScape Park. Directed by Olivier Dahan, the 2007 biographical film traces Piaf’s journey from a difficult childhood to international fame, while also examining the personal struggles that shaped her music and public life. Marion Cotillard delivers a transformative performance as Piaf, anchoring the film’s shifting timelines and emotional intensity.

Rather than following a traditional chronological structure, the film moves fluidly through memory and experience, reflecting Piaf’s inner world while situating her story within mid-20th-century French music culture. The approach emphasizes character and atmosphere alongside historical context.

The screening is part of the City of Miami Beach’s SoundScape Cinema Series and begins at 8 p.m. Admission is free with no ticket required. Guests are encouraged to bring blankets or lawn chairs for seating on the lawn and enjoy the film on the New World Center’s large-scale outdoor projection wall.
