Vanessa Kirby and Shia LaBeouf star in trailer for Netflix’s Pieces of a Woman

November 17, 2020 by EJ Moreno

In this heart-breaking first look at Pieces of a Woman, you can see why many have placed Vanessa Kirby at the top of their Oscar predictions. Coming from Netflix later this winter, the Kornél Mundruczó-directed film promises a gut-wrenching cinematic experience unlike any other this year. Check out the poster and first trailer for Pieces of a Woman here…

Martha (Vanessa Kirby) and Sean (Shia LaBeouf) are a Boston couple on the verge of parenthood whose lives change irrevocably when a home birth ends in unimaginable tragedy. Thus begins a yearlong odyssey for Martha, who must navigate her grief while working through fractious relationships with Sean and her domineering mother (Ellen Burstyn), along with the publicly vilified midwife (Molly Parker), whom she must face in court. Directed by Kornél Mundruczó (WHITE GOD, winner of the 2014 Prix Un Certain Regard Award), written by Kata Wéber, and executive produced by Martin Scorsese, PIECES OF A WOMAN, is a deeply personal, searing, and ultimately transcendent story of a woman learning to live alongside her loss.

Pieces of a Woman is set for a theatrical release on December 30th, 2020, with a Netflix release on January 7th, and stars Vanessa Kirby, Shia LaBeouf, Ellen Burstyn and Molly Parker.
