Sienna Miller has boarded Joe Weiland and Finn Constantine’s short film “Marion” as executive producer.
The film tells the story of Marion, France’s only female bull-jumper.
“The short tracks the tense fifteen minutes before her first performance in a packed French arena,” reads the logline. “As she prepares, being the only woman in the team, the film explores her battle against misogyny and prejudiced attitudes. A journey of one woman through an all-male world – juggling motherhood and the contentious pursuit of her passion.”
Caroline Larbère – a real French bull-jumper – plays Marion, who is struggling to reconcile her passion for the sport with her womanhood. Weiland and Constantine were inspired to write the short by Larbère herself.
In France, La Course Landaise is an ancient form of bullfighting that involves no bloodshed. The film was shot last December in Bayonne, France.
