ANILOGUE Filmfestival: A Magnificent Life
A story about the beginnings of sound film in Europe.
At the height of his fame, Marcel Pagnol is commissioned to write a literary series about his childhood and Provence. As he writes the first pages, the little Marcel as he was as a child suddenly appears in front of him triggering his memories: the advent of talking pictures, the first major film studio, his love of actors, and writing. The great storyteller then becomes the hero of his own story.
Sylvain Chomet is a much acclaimed French film director, the author of widely popular Oscar nominated films, The Triplets of Belleville (2003) and The Illusionist (2010).
