Le film de Frédéric Laffont se construit comme un combat : en 12 rounds ! What do boxers dream of? Grand Prix Festival de Palerme 1994 VSD: "Built like a 12-round fight, in a suburban boxing gym. A lucky knockout!" English version: WHAT DO BOXERS DREAM ABOUT? A film by Frédéric Laffont Editing: Jean-François Giré Length: 54' © France 3, Interscoop, 1993 The film is constructed like a fight: in 12 rounds! A deaf-mute shoemaker, a Croatian militiaman, a European champion, a machine operator, a former Indochina veteran, a film buff... these are just some of our boxers! The setting: a legendary hall on the outskirts of Paris, dripping with the stench of sweat. Life, between knockouts and dreams, always saved by the bell.

"Réalisé avec subtilité et humour, Anges et démons porte sur la banlieue et les gens qui y vivent un regard juste, généreux et sans pitié." Angels and Demons of the City L’Express: "This documentary has the strange beauty of Pasolini's early films. Frédéric Laffont's film is a masterpiece that we would dream of seeing in the cinema. There are no clichés here. Frédéric Laffont proves that there's no such thing as a hackneyed subject when it comes to passion." Le Point: "The author, Frédéric Laffont, has written a scathing documentary. It's a slap in the face to good feelings and security prejudices." Le Monde : "Filmed in La Mare Rouge, a aera with a bad reputation in the northern suburbs of Le Havre, this documentary is an extraordinary chronicle of the neighbourhood. Frédéric Laffont spent two months there. He was able to gain the trust of the young people who, in return, gave him powerful testimonies. With subtlety and humour, Anges et démons takes a fair, generous and merciless look at the suburbs and the people who live there." Télérama: "There's a sense of hindsight in this frank look at successes and failures with a sensitive eye. And the film comes across as a tale of ordinary life, sincere, fair and deeply touching." Le Monde (bis) : "A film without demagoguery, poignant and beautiful, not made to inspire pity. A lesson in humility." Libération : "It could be a western or a gangster film, with rival gangs and sacred places of confrontation. Frédéric Laffont immersed himself for seven weeks in Le Havre to bring back a story where reality vies with the novel. The air of the suburbs as rarely seen... Raw, lived, and far from sad." Editing : Jean-François Giré Length: 1h31' © Interscoop, France 3, 1994 Le Havre, cités de la Mare Rouge, Auchan, angels and demons...

"C’est par la plume poétique de Frédéric Laffont que l’on découvre l’histoire d’un des personnages les plus illustres, mais certainement aussi l’un des plus discrets de la gastronomie française. L’histoire d’un homme singulier, et la vie d’un grand chef dont les mots sont si rares que l’on s’en délecte ici. " A life by the menu Editions L'Iconoclaste, 2021 Passion Literature Prize, 2022 The child was wild, the man embodies the excellence of French gastronomy. At L'Ambroisie, his three-Michelin-starred restaurant for over thirty years, Bernard Pacaud refines his legendary dishes for lunch and dinner. A truffle turnover with a good mood, a half-mourning Bresse chicken, a thin shortbread tart with bitter cocoa... Like the mushrooms he cherishes, the chef prefers shadow to light. For ten years, Frédéric Laffont has gathered his rare words and, with a chiseled style, recreates a destiny, encounters with extraordinary beings, an endless quest for perfection. A life, a century of culinary history, where we meet Mère Brazier, Jacques Lacan, Barak Obama, François Truffaut, Calamity Jane and the Absente. Libération : “An intense biography. A deeply moving account, written by Frédéric Laffont. The intense writing style of this renowned reporter and documentary filmmaker, winner of the 1987 Albert Londres Prize for his coverage of the war in Lebanon, reflects his close friendship with the chef, whom he has known for thirty years.” Le Figaro : “A remarkable biography. This book is unlike the usual culinary hagiographies; the author addresses his subject as if revealing his own story to him in order to soften the painful moments, the unknown father, the overly absent mother.” France Inter, Nicolas Demorand : “This is the biography of a modest man who shuns the limelight. His cuisine speaks for him. Obsessive work. Asceticism. Silence. A poem.” Sud Radio : « Excellent! » Politis : “An original literary form to paint the portrait of an outstanding chef. The quintessence of the culinary arts.” Télérama : “Let's taste this book!” Bottin Gourmand : "A remarkable book that stands out from everything we know about culinary literature." L’Opinion : "A book that left me breathless, which I read in one sitting, thinking on almost every page how lucky I am to know Danièle and him a little, and to love them. I believe Honoré Balzac wrote, ‘We don't like something a little or a lot. We either like it or we don't.’ I like it." Gilles Pudlowski : “An ode to Bernard Pacaud. A brilliant tribute to one of the great chefs of his time.” Gastronomie : "A favorite. Frédéric Laffont's poetic pen reveals the story of one of the most illustrious, but certainly also one of the most discreet figures in French gastronomy. The story of a singular man, and the life of a great chef whose words are so rare that we revel in them here." L’Hôtellerie : “A powerful and moving story right up to the last line.”

Tournages clandestins en Afghanistan, en URSS, à Kaboul… pour un film en deux épisodes de Frédéric Laffont et Christophe de Ponfilly. Dust of War Golden Eagle of the Rueil International History Festival, 1990 Grand Prize at the Angers International Journalism Festival, 1990 VSD: “A magnificent piece of work. The spirit of great reporting in its purest form.” Le Figaro: “Christophe de Ponfilly and Frédéric Laffont have tracked down, in both camps, the stigmata of the absurd Soviet-Afghan conflict. “A formidable exercise, an admirable result.” Some, the Soviets, are doing their "internationalist duty." The others, the Afghan Mujahideen, are fighting for freedom, against "yellow men with blue hair, without beauty." Clandestine filming in Afghanistan, the USSR, Kabul... for a film in two episodes. 1.

"Entre documentaire et film de cinéma, Les Mains d'Hermès est un hymne à l'artisanat bien plus qu'au luxe à la française.'' The Hands of Hermes Hearts & Craft Le Monde: "Between documentary and cinema film, The Hands of Hermès is a hymn to craftsmanship much more than to French luxury. A slow film, made of silences and glances, of ancestral gestures with, in the background, a deep and foggy France." English version: HEARTS AND CRAFT A film by Frédéric Laffont and Isabelle Dupuy-Chavanat Edited by Pauline Casalis Duration: 46' © Hermès, 2011 Craftsmen, gestures and know-how. The breath of leather and crystal, the song of silk and metal, the words of men and women, their silences too. A reference film screened in cinemas in Tokyo, New York, Beijing, Paris, Moscow, Abu Dhabi. Artisans of Hermès 9 short films, 9 universes, 9 portraits of artisans. 9 for the 10 fingers of the hand. The Hands of Hermes. Duration: 13' © Hermès, 2011
