One year after the closing of Operation "Marseille, European Capital of Culture" in 2013, the director Nicolas Burlaud draws up a critical review of this year "exceptional" according to local decision-makers. According to him, the festivities were a Trojan horse. While the inhabitants looked elsewhere, too busy to "cultivate" during this event, the promoters seized the districts of the popular classes. An area that has metamorphosed but caused the poor to flee, unable to pay higher rents.

A political fable. A tragicomedy set in Marseille during the municipal elections of June 1995. In populist northern districts, they rally around the "Nord Ambition" of Bernard Tapie. In pushing for Tapie to take town hall, they count on his support for the northern districts, but difficulties and disappointments follow. Tapie ends up backing the very enemies of his followers, so what happens then? Big fish eat small ones. This is the fourth installment of the Marseille political saga which began with, "Marseille from father to son" (1989).
