Let’s dance: A history of France through balls

Behind the iconic Eiffel Tower lies the story of an incredible challenge to erect a thousand-foot tower. Using 3D recreations, official sources and intimate archives, this film recounts the vertical race that was a turning point in engineering history.

A compelling and glamorous saga to explore one of the jewels of royal architecture in Europe.

Propelling us through sumptuous settings (from the Versailles palace to the Forbidden City), this film sheds light on four centuries of artistic influences between China and France.

1919. After a four-year journey to the edge of hell, the French are alive again. Everyone enters the 20th century with confidence and dreams of eternal peace. No one suspects that the "Roaring Twenties" will only be an enchanted, short-lived interlude. With fear, the French see the shadow of war reappear.

Between 1939 and 1945, a handful of amateur filmmakers filmed their daily lives in Normandy. By bringing these exceptional archives out of oblivion, this documentary tells the story of war through a new lens, as close to those who lived through it.

In this great tale in two parts, witnesses, famous or not, teachers and students confront their memories with the history of the school, the history of the nation at the level of children.
