Jane Birkin's invite-only service was held at the city's Saint Roch Church, as well as broadcast on the street outside.
An audible gasp went up in the audience as daughters Charlotte Gainsbourg and Lou Doillon emerged carrying their mother’s casket on their shoulders up the steep steps of the building.
Still, it was a teary, emotional service for the private invitees and public alike, with Gainsbourg taking to the pulpit for a short speech during which she choked up. “I see all your souls in pain without her,” she said. “I can already see the void she has left in us. She is my mother, she is our mother,” she continued of the icon, concluding with the lyrics of “Jane B.,” a song written by her father Serge Gainsbourg.
“There was you, scaring the hell out of me going to Sarajevo under the bombs because you said I’d be ashamed later that my mother didn’t do anything,” Doillon said. “She is someone very benevolent, very attached to others,” Rampling told BFMTV after the ceremony. “She has an extraordinary generosity of spirit.”
