Élie Kakou au Point Virgule

Show recorded at the Cirque d'Hiver in 1997. This show marked both the consecration and the farewell of Elie Kakou to his public. This show, the artist's most accomplished, mixes great spectacle and humor through an incredible sound and visual delirium: in the company of dancers, trapeze artists, stilt walkers and whimsical characters, all on choreographies signed Rhéda; it is one of the most beautiful tributes to the world of the circus.

For his last show in Marseille, the city where he grew up, Elie Kakou brought together all the characters in his repertoire. From the unavoidable Granny Sarfati, at odds with her husband and daughter Fortunée, to Mongola, the former "Clodette", the comedian invited to a journey in his so particular universe, revisiting in no particular order the classics of the children's literature, the masterpieces of the French song and even the verses of the great Molière. A varied program, between great successes and new sketches, interspersed with choreography by Kamel Ouali.

Show recorded on February 26, 1993 at the Grande Halle de la Villette in Paris for the benefit of the Restos du Coeur.

Jobless loner Eddie Vuibert gets a lucky break when a rich Jewish entrepreneur mistakes him for a Jew and gives him a sweet job in the Parisian fashion district.

Show recorded at the Opéra Comique in Paris on March 6, 1995 for the benefit of the Restos du Coeur.

Leonie Koutcharev, a top civil servant at the Ministry of Interior, proposes an ideal solution to the problem of overpopulated prisons: put model prisoners in the homes of carefully screened families. Jules and Norma Klarh, a childless couple, expect to receive an inoffensive juvenile delinquent but end up with the psychopath Marcus Steckner in their suburban home. The film centers on social criticism of the gap between reality and the bureaucratic assumptions of what reality should be.

Ulysse, a gun-toting hood, gets together a team of four people, including himself, to carry out what he thinks will be a fail-safe heist...

Monsieur Naphtali is a good-natured but somewhat feeble older man turned away from the rest home where he lives. In search of a place to stay, he finds his way to Paris, where a woman taking surveys takes pity on him and brings him home for a meal and a bed for the night. Naphtali finds himself spending the evening with the survey woman, her brother who works in publishing, his lovely but unhappy wife, an alcoholic doctor, and his wife, an ill-tempered judge. In a simple and unpretentious manner, Naphtali forces them all to open up about themselves and discuss elements of their lives that they usually prefer to avoid.
