LES ENFANTS DU PARADIS
(THE CHILDREN OF PARADISE)Paris under Louis Philippe, Boulevard du Crime. Love and death played out among the actors and buffoons. From here, the love shared by the beautiful Garance and the mime Jean-Baptiste Debureau is ever countered by a fickle destiny. Around them, other fates are decided – that of the dandy and murderer Lacenaire, of Nathalie who marries Jean-Baptiste but can’t forget her rival, of Frederick whose one true love is the theater.
