Jean Becker, l’artisan du cinéma

Over a period of several months, the production team talks to the filmmaker, his friends, actors and family, looking back together at the films that have marked his life: L’Été Meurtrier, Les Enfants du Marais, Deux jours à Tuer. What do his films say about him? As the son of Jacques Becker, he had to grow up under the weight of an imposing cinematic heritage, while forging his own identity.

For the first time, for the duration of a documentary, the camera changes direction to film, intimately, the man who was behind it for 70 years.
