Jacques Villeret, drôlement tragique

Built on archive footage – much of it previously unseen – this film reveals one of the most unexpected legacies of the First World War -- popular participation in sports, once the realm of the elite.  For four years, sport represented a welcome respite from the killing fields of Europe.

Games on the Battlefield

Pierre Desproges, une plume dans le culte

In the countryside, a family home is the theatre of a veritable hunting scene between the residents' cat and the previous occupants' mouse. But the game is far from over, and where the predator uses a wide variety of schemes to reach his target, his prey becomes even more resourceful in his bid to escape being caught.

A Cat and Mouse Game

Si Paris m'était chanté

A look back at "La Cage aux Folles", which ran non-stop for five years, from February 1973, on the stage of the Théâtre du Palais Royal in Paris. At a time when homosexuality was considered a crime by the law, Poiret and Serrault achieved great success in boulevard theater. Their success continued on the silver screen, with three Oscar nominations and a Broadway musical. Combining never-before-seen archives from the play, extracts from the film, confessions by Poiret and Serrault, and interviews with witnesses, this is the story of a wild epic.
