Film Synopsis
Gustave suffers from chronic narcolepsy. He has a habit of
falling asleep anywhere and at any time, which presents something of a
handicap for his professional life. The upside is that he can
live, in his dreams, the most fantastic adventures. As he falls
asleep, Gustave becomes an invincible superhero. His
psychoanalyst, Samuel Pupkin, realises that he can profit from
Gustave's fanciful dream experiences. With the help of Guy
Bennet, a failed comic, Samuel sets about publishing a series of
adventures based on what Gustave tells him...

French cinema during the Nazi Occupation
Even in the dark days of the Occupation, French cinema continued to impress with its artistry and diversity.
It was American film noir and pulp fiction that kick-started the craze for thrillers in 1950s France and made it one of the most popular and enduring genres.
From Jean Renoir to François Truffaut, French cinema has no shortage of truly great filmmakers, each bringing a unique approach to the art of filmmaking.
