About La Découverte
To make his neighbor no longer eye his wife, Paulo decides to put on the wall in front of his house a painting representing New York. A waste of time, the neighbor continues to look at his wife...
Directed by Arthur Joffé, La Découverte leans on a strong ensemble — Dominique Pinon, Sylvie Nordheim, Roland Amstutz — 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 screen titles of 1980.
