Director: Mehdi Idir & Grand Corps Malade

With: Tahar Rahim, Bastien Bouillon

Paris in the 1930s: When little Charles takes part in a play for a few coins, he discovers his talent for the stage and decides to become a singer. The conditions for this are extremely poor: with no money, the son of Armenian immigrants and an unusual voice, nobody believes in his success. Driven by unbridled ambition, Charles spares neither effort nor risk, and when he comes to the attention of chanson icon Edith Piaf, fame seems within his grasp. But is he prepared to leave the people he loves behind in pursuit of his dream? In this impressive biopic, Tahar Rahim embodies the legendary chansonnier with intensity and authenticity in all his facets.
