About Mai 68, la belle ouvrage
Filmed at the heart of the events, composed of interviews and exclusive archives, this film sheds light on this social revolution. It denounces police brutality at the forefront of the action. Beginning with General de Gaulle's famous speech, composed of interviews and powerful testimonies from opposing camps (world figures, barricade activists, artists, and students), the film transports us to the heart of the action.
Directed by Jean-Luc Magneron, Mai 68, la belle ouvrage leans on a strong ensemble — Dominique Ange, Julien Besançon, Patrick Peynaud — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 1969.
