Angelina Jolie and Salma Hayek discussed their new war drama «Without Blood» in an interview with «Extra», - which is an adaptation of Alessandro Baricco’s book. The film, directed by Jolie and featuring Hayek in the lead role, unfolds years after a conflict and explores universal truths about war, trauma, memory, and healing.
According to Hayek, working on «Without Blood» was significantly different from their previous collaboration, «Eternals». She noted that the filming of «Without Blood» was more intimate and safe. Jolie added that the atmosphere on set was a «polar opposite» to their previous experience.
Jolie shared that the book resonated with her as it touches on both personal and global aspects of conflicts. She pointed out that many people who have experienced wars continue to carry their consequences within themselves, and it is important to discuss this. Jolie expressed hope that viewers would reflect on whom they would like to talk to about their experiences after watching the film.
Hayek, for her part, hopes that viewers will consider how resolving conflicts can contribute to personal growth. They both noted that filming in Italy was a pleasant experience, including cooking activities with children.
The film «Without Blood» is set to be released on September 18.
