Synopsis
Taking us to some of the places where he sketches his characters, the French cartoonist speaks about his work, the need to draw from nature, the frustration he experiences at never being able to capture what he really sees and the way in which this frustration spurs his imagination.

Our take
Mathieu Amalric’s documentary dives into the creative drawing process of one of France’s most celebrated cartoonists Joann Sfar (Gainsbourg: A Heroic Life). From practical instructions to everyday conversations, this meandering film is a tender, amusing, and informal portrait of the artist.
