Note from the artistic direction
With this Bernard Tapie biopic, Netflix is back in competition, and for the first time with a French series. It revisits the origins of the Tapie phenomenon, who didn’t start off quite so well, between a career in music cut short, small business issues, meeting Dominique, and his difficult relationship with his parents… But we can already sense in all of these, his relentless determination, carried by a completely possessed performance by Laurent Lafitte, and marvelous supporting roles.
