Film description
The long-awaited new film by the Academy Award nominated French animation director Sylvain Chomet (The Triplets of Belleville, The Illusionist) is a wonderful biographical animated drama that delves into the life of legendary playwright and director Marcel Pagnol. In 1955, Pagnol is going through a crisis of self-confidence, while simultaneously his memory starts to betray him. Tasked with writing a weekly column about his childhood for Elle magazine, he is tormented by doubts in the wake of his most recent plays’ failure. In this moment of complete vulnerability, the young man he once was, emerges from the depths of his memory – Little Marcel Pagnol. Together, they relive the most significant chapters of their life: from his first steps as a teacher in Provence to his groundbreaking cinematic work with sound, from the construction of his own film studios to the conflicts of World War II. A film that depicts the timeless vitality of a man who was, above all, a bon vivant.
