The Pearl and the Onion

Brittany K. Allen

Read Now Download Now
This daring historical drama imagines what would have happened if real-life World War II Allied operatives Julia Child and Josephine Baker had teamed up in their fight to take down the Nazis.

When our story begins, Julia Child is an eager but inexperienced codebreaker longing to prove herself in the male-dominated world of intelligence, and Josephine Baker is, well, Josephine Baker—a world-famous entertainer who is now leading a double life as a spy for the French Resistance.

When a golden opportunity arises to infiltrate a high-stakes Nazi gala in Vichy France, Julia must put aside her by-the-book mentality to assist her unorthodox new partner. What begins as a rookie assignment becomes a dangerous game of deception and intrigue, thrusting the duo into the dark underworld of collaborators and double agents.

Blending rich historical details with crackling dialogue, The Pearl and the Onion is an unmissable portrait of courage, sacrifice, and the unbreakable spirit of resistance in the face of evil. Its inspiring heroes, thrilling missions, and immersive soundscapes will transport you to the heart of the international struggle for freedom in 1940s Europe, painting a vital portrait of how the iconic chef and the international entertainer risked everything in service of a better world. Starring Anna Chlumsky and Jasmine Cephas Jones. Directed by Kimberly Senior.
