Olympic suburbs
Libération: " We can never thank Frédéric Laffont enough, who directed this beautiful issue of Aux petits bonheurs la France, for stepping back behind the humanity of those he films and not selling out their singularity to make them into idiotic standard-bearers.
On the effectiveness of the counter-attack.”
Le Monde: " An exciting film by Frédéric Laffont. In search of characters who fight to build social bonds and improve people's lives, the director stopped
in Noisy-le-Sec.
A cheerful, hopeful documentary, sensitively filmed and narrated."
A film by Frédéric Laffont
