A 100% concert film marvel to watch online, a free gem. Movie theater

We came across this little film by chance, posted online without the fanfare that it deserved and it made our little Christmas before its time.

A beautiful gift from the singer Lenparrot with Marion Le Nevet and Pierre Lucas editing and arranging. Titled Our stories make historyit is a film concert packaged with songs that have a link with Nantes on archive images from 1934 to 1981, borrowed from the cinema library. The film concert was designed and given live last May, at the Mauduit salons, for the five years of the Nantes Patrimonia platform, a sort of contributory encyclopedia devoted to the great and small heritage of Nantes.

The film begins with the very pretty title Nantesfrom the Beirut group, taken over by Lenparrot, associated with images of the . With his deep and enveloping voice, the singer from Nantes also performs The symphony of lightning by Zaho de Sagazan on images of cranes, the yellow one and those numerous and missing from the port. There are still these images of the transporter bridge discharging its stream of passengers… To a tune by Lenparrot himself, borrowed from The conversationhis latest delicious opus all in French released in the fall.

May 68, the people of Nantes are in the streets. DR

We also remember My loversong by the late, brilliant group, Mansfield TYA, with this image of a Renault 4 in front of an Amiprix store in 1972, in Dervallières, then an “ideal city”. And then, life enters into the images: the students, workers and peasants who took to the streets in May 68, the demonstrations that were being prepared… But also, the forgiveness of Sainte-Anne and numerous images from mid- Lent on a facetious revival of Magnoliaby Claude François. And impressive, the images of the cathedral on fire on January 28, 1972.

In total, 36 minutes and three seconds of sounds and images to savor, to recognize and where some will recognize themselves. And for the youngest or new Nantes residents, beautiful slices of Nantes stories to discover.
