Jeanne Roques
Jeanne Roques, better known as Musidora, was a pioneering French actress and filmmaker renowned for her role as Irma Vep in the silent film serial 'Les Vampires.' Born into a family of artistic and revolutionary influences, she broke societal norms of her time, often dressing in a sleek black silk jumpsuit. Musidora was not only a muse to surrealist artists but also a creative force, adapting literary works for film and publishing her own poetry and novels. Her legacy continues to inspire feminist movements in cinema, leading to the establishment of a collective named after her in 1973.
