In May 1974, Valéry Giscard d'Estaing became President of the Republic and wanted to bring about a new era of modernity. One of his first decisions was to break up the ORTF with the creation of three new television channels: TF1, Antenne 2 and FR3. Three new public channels but autonomous and competing. It is a race for the audience which is engaged then, and from now on the channels will make the war! This competition will give birth to a real golden age for television programs, with variety shows in the forefront. The stars of the song are going to invade the living rooms of the French for their biggest pleasure. This unedited documentary tells the story of the metamorphosis of this television of the early 1970s, between freedom of tone, scandals, political intrigues and programs that have become mythical.

ふたりの女性の危ういほどスリリングな関係に、
ポランスキーが仕掛けた戦慄のミステリー
フランスで今もっとも注目されている作家デルフィーヌ・ド・ヴィガンの小説「デルフィーヌの友情」を映像化したのは巨匠ロマン・ポランスキー。熟練の技巧を凝らして随所に意味ありげな描写を織り交ぜながら、ふたりのヒロインがたどる予測不能の運命をスリリングに映し出す。人間の孤独とアイデンティティーの揺らぎ、密室的なシチュエーションで膨れ上がる極限の不安、じわじわと曖昧になっていく現実とフィクションの境目。これらまさしくポランスキー的なサスペンスと倒錯が渦巻く映像世界は、ひとときもスクリーンから目が離せず、ラスト・シーンを見届けた後もしばし観客を幻惑する。

There are those who have chosen the light and those who lead a discreet life, those who have told their story and those who bear their secrets alone, those who have found peace and those who are still looking for it ... But behind the diversity of life paths, these women and men all have an extraordinary destiny: that of being born in a body that did not stick to their true identity and , at the cost of real physical and moral suffering, to have corrected this "carelessness" of nature. Transsexuals are not strictly speaking taboo. We talk about it and we even talk about it a lot. But have we ever really listened to them?

It is the early 1300's and the treasury of France, under the rule of Philippe IV (Philippe le Bel or Philippe the Beautiful), is empty. The king decides the only solution is to raid the treasures of the Knights Templar (amongst others) and concocts various charges of treason, heresy and deviance against the Knights and their Grand Master Jacques de Molay. Having confessed under torture to the crimes of which he is accused, de Molay is condemned to be burned at the stake. With his dying breath he curses the king, the king's advisor (Guillaume de Nogaret), the pope (Pope Clement V) and the thirteen succeeding generations of their families. There follows one of the most dramatic periods in French history, half a century of political intrigue, murder, treason, war and famine, which ultimately culminates in the 100 Years War.
