The filmmaker did not want to worry his financial partners by announcing to them that he was already working on another project. The idea of Yannick came to him by chance after the screening of his film Smoking makes you cough at the Cannes Film Festival. The desire to work again with Raphaël Quenard quickly became evident to him. “I suggested that we make a film together, something free, between us. I wrote the script quite quickly straight away. Blanche Gardin and Pio Marmaï joined the project, and we shot very quickly”confided the director.
