Unemployed because he has been dismissed from the play which he rehearsed in Paris and in cold with his partner Françoise, Christian takes refuge at his friend Nathalie in the Corbières. This one fell in love with Hippolyte, which meets them between two business trips. His arrival brings about tensions so that Christian settles down in “La Campagne de Cicéron”, the property of his friend Hermance. There he notices that Françoise was also invited...

BEHIND THE CAMERA

JACQUES DAVILA

Born in 1941 in Oran (Algeria), Jacques Davila enters cinema through television. He is indeed during three years (1969-1972) assistant of Janine Bazin and André S . Labarthe on programs like “Filmmakers of our Time” and “Archives of the 20th Century”. His first movies will be two short films dedicated to two painters: Bonnard and Ingres, before a collaboration (as director) on the TV program “Dim Dam Dom”. His first true productions are first on stage in the middle of the 70s, after which, he moves very soon to cinema. In 1976, he directs Certaines nouvelles which will be shown, for financial reasons, only in 1979 and for which he will receive the Jean-Vigo Prize. Friend of Paul Vecchiali, Jacques Davila takes part in the collective work Archipel des amours and co-writes

Gérard Frot-Coutaz's movies, Beau temps mais orageux en fin de journée and Après après-demain. Two other movies will follow before a premature death interrupts his career on October 14th, 1991: Qui trop embrasse (1986) and La Campagne de

Cicéron (1989). director’s filmography

ABOUT THE FILM’S RESTORATION

In spite of our search, we were not able to find a single copy of La Campagne de Cicéron by Jacques Davila, released only twenty years ago. This lack was behind our desire to restore this film. The restoration was led from the remaining elements of printing: magnetic soundtrack and Super 16mm film negative. The film was digitized in order to work on the calibration and to synchronize the sound and the picture. After

these operations, 35 mm copies were printed.
