2021 · Documentary

A true idol of the 1970s throughout the French-speaking world and beyond, Cloclo had one weakness: his relationship with his fans! Most of them were teenage girls who would push him over the edge. After more than a year of investigation into an opaque world bound by a strict code of silence, and following on from a previous report, the makers of this documentary reveal the hidden side of Claude François.

Directed by Jeanne Lefèvre
