in an interview with Nouvel Obs
In an interview given to Nouvel Obs in November, after a well-deserved vacation, the Rouennais expressed above all:his pride” and returned to his idea of regularly organizing major popular shows – why not on the occasion of July 14 – on the history of France: “We sense the population’s taste for major popular events.”
Until now, Justine Triet, originally from Fécamp, delighted the audiences of the “arthouse” rooms with her first opuses, “The Battle of Solférino” (2013), “Victoria” (2016) and “Sybil” (2019).

The film has had nearly two million admissions in France and seven million worldwide.
This Oscar will help me get through the mid-life crisis. It’s a crazy year!
