00:40 will burst into flames one day.
00:41 If Esty is a autobiographical film but above all not a biopic, Catherine Deneuve defends

00:53 which was talked about a lot before its release.
00:56 For her, if Esty is a comedy in which the family spectrum is much more highlighted

02:19 by his parents remains always at the base of the family history, of his secret, she indicates.
02:26 "Even if we don't talk about it during childhood and adolescence, to try to go beyond,
02:32 we knew it, and we know it, and generally, there are always times when the wound
02:37 can resurface. When you have a sick child, as was the case for Bernadette Chirac, we
02:45 devote more time to it. The difference is not in affection but in the past. "

03:40 but which commanded their lives to both had also declared the former minister Jacques
03:44 Toubon, relayed by France Télévisions Infos. "
03:48 Claude Delay, a friend of the couple, had described the situation with strong words.
