Cycling with Molière (2013)

At the zenith of his fame, celebrated actor Serge Tanneur abruptly abandons the stage, seeking solitude on France's rugged Atlantic coast. Three years pass before Gauthier Valence, a popular television personality, arrives with an enticing proposition: the lead in his directorial debut, a bold reimagining of Molière's "The Misanthrope."

Initially resistant, Serge proposes a trial, a five-day rehearsal of the opening scene to determine his involvement. This sparks an intense clash of egos and intellect, interwoven with bizarre encounters, including a hotel maid harboring cinematic ambitions and a sophisticated Italian divorcée. The island becomes a stage for unexpected dramas and quiet introspection.
