This film tells Simone Veil's life story through the pivotal events of the 20th century. Touching on her childhood, political battles, and tragedies, Simone - Woman of the Century is an intimate and epic portrait of an extraordinary woman who eminently challenged and transformed her era, defending a humanist message still keenly relevant today.
