Céline Sciamma's PORTRAIT OF A LADY ON FIRE is a tale of empowerment, creativity and forbidden passion. And - spoiler alert - apart from two musical moments that play a part in the plot, the film has no music.

The film also tells us that art, literature, music and cinema allow us to give full rein to our emotions."
