Diva (1981)

A young Parisian postman who secretly tapes his favourite opera singer finds himself hunted by criminals after a dying woman hides a cassette in his mail bag.

Jean-Jacques Beineix's stylish 1981 thriller follows Jules, a postman whose bootleg recording of diva Cynthia Hawkins draws him into a dangerous underworld after he unwittingly receives evidence from a murdered woman. Blending action, drama and noir-inflected suspense, the film stars Frédéric Andréi alongside Richard Bohringer and Wilhelmenia Fernandez.
