Monique and Michel Pinçon-Charlot are a couple of French sociologists, famous for their work on the uber-rich. They have been in love for more than fifty years, and they enjoy a comfortable retirement in their lovely home in the Paris suburbs. They could live a quiet life, but how do you get some rest when there is capitalism to fight against?
Mysteries, hidden defects, scandals or family secrets? Nothing like that in the life of the filmmaker Claude Chabrol. Just a lifestyle of a Buddha gourmand, a sneaky anarchist, an insolent lover of life. There is a question though… How was he able to make 58 movies in 50 years? This is the story about his outstanding life, told by Cécile, his adopted daughter and also his collaborator for many years.
Join sociologists Monique and Michel Pinçon-Charlot on their “investigation” of the French aristocracy and gentry. An entertaining and instructive movie on an exclusive and highly secretive world.
