In A matter of honorVincent Perez plays Colonel Berchère, a man obsessed with honor and ready to draw his sword at the slightest opportunity… When he comes into conflict with Clément Lacaze (Roschdy Zem, all in intensity), a taciturn fencing master , these are two conceptions of the world which will clash.
At the same time, Lacaze, who crossed paths with Marie-Rose Astié (Doria Tillier), a feminist ahead of her time, decides to teach her the complex art of dueling.
Fourth film directed by Vincent Perez, A matter of honor is a dive into 19th century Paris and a time when for a sideways glance, an unfortunate word, or, most often, for flouted honor, one risked one's life with the sword, the saber or the pistol . Both historical drama and thrilling epic, A matter of honor dust off all these genres.
Hence the desire to offer Vincent Perez some scenes of duels which have marked the history of cinema to see how he drew on his predecessors and, above all, how he was able to stand out from them.
A matter of honordirected by Vincent Perez and starring Roschdy Zem, Doria Tillier, Vincent Perez and Damien Bonnard was released last December in cinemas, and it will be offered this Tuesday evening on Canal +, as well as on MyCanal for subscribers.
