Jolie looked chic in black pants, a glittering black top and a red lip. She was accompanied by Shiloh, Zahara, Pax and Maddox. The film's director, Prune Nourry, also posed in a photo with the group.

The film follow's Nourry's breast cancer diagnosis, a subject that hits close to home for Jolie.

In 2013, the Oscar-winning actress revealed she quietly underwent a preventive double mastectomy after discovering she carried the BRCA1 gene mutation, which sharply increases a woman's risk of developing breast cancer and ovarian cancer.

Jolie also lost her mother, Marcheline Bertrand, to breast and ovarian cancer.
