Zoé Rivemale films the making of Dans la peau de Blanche Houellebecq, a shoot in which she is also second assistant director. The position allows her to capture everything; to recount the anecdotes, the encounters, the jokes, but above all the work of the film crew. It’s a behind-the-scenes look that’s just as funny as the original; a fascinating glimpse into Guillaume Nicloux's working methods (L'enlèvement de Michel Houellebecq, Prix spécial du jury Temps Ø in 2014, Valley of Love, Thalasso, etc.) and the unlikely artistic match of Houellebecq and Gardin. Above all, however, it is a study of the entire technical team, working tirelessly behind the scenes, revealing how such a film is made. Informative, fascinating and, admittedly, quite comical. © FNC 2024
