Claude Chabrol, the Maverick
Directed by Cécile Maistre-ChabrolIn post-war Paris, the young Claude Chabrol, reluctant to follow his father's path, skipped his pharmacy classes to study films at the Cinémathèque française. A few years later, thanks to the love and financial support of Agnès, his first wife, he indulged his passion for cinema. After having produced, in 1956, "Le Coup du berger", by Jacques Rivette, the inaugural short film of the New Wave, Claude Chabrol offered the revolutionary wave its first feature film, "Le Beau Serge", shot in Sardent. There followed, until his death in 2010, 57 films spread over half a century, made in an atmosphere of joy and complicity with the help of his faithful tribe.
