Crowdfunding launch

The production of our film is completely independent, managed in an associative way and entirely operated by volunteers. Technicians and comedians all work on the film in their spare time, but we still need quite large funds, so we can rent the equipment needed to ensure the best quality, as well as allow our team to work in the best conditions.

Lancement d'une cagnotte en ligne

La production de notre film est totalement indépendante, gérée de manière associative et opérée entièrement par des bénévoles. Les techniciens et les comédiens travaillent tous sur le film dans leur temps libre, mais nous avons néanmoins besoin de fonds relativement importants, afin de pouvoir louer le matériel nécessaire pour s'assurer la meilleure qualité possible, ainsi que de permettre à notre équipe de travailler dans les meilleures conditions.

The Mézière Castle

The Mézière Castle was the home of the same family since 1893. This castle, situated in the Loir Valley, is built on a Gallo-Roman city hence its name "Mézière".
It belonged to the family of Taillevis for generations. Raphael de Taillevis was a physician and friend of the King of Navarre, Antoine de Bourbon, Duke of Vendome, father of Henry IV.
The King of Navarre and Jeanne d'Albret were married in Moulins (Allier) and came into wedlock in the Vendômois. They regularly came to the Mézière castle. The poet Ronsard found the opportunity to compose a poem filled with delicacy following this royal event.
With time passing, the castle has changed. It retains all its charm, with its small chapel, carved porch (1555) and fireplaces encrusted with slates as in Chambord.

By the Shadow of the Lake

Elsa — 2018-06-28T13:12:34Z

Synopsis

By the Shadow of the Lake tells the story of Suzanne Rosemont du Lac, an ambitious young woman of the early twentieth century. While she is in India, negotiating the price of spices for the family's company, she receives a telegram from her father. The latter informs her of the failure of a commercial partnership, causing the considerable weakening of their financial means.

Suzanne is thus obliged to return to France, where her father evades her from the company in order to reintegrate her into society life. Suzanne's parents want to marry her to André, the son of a newly rich family. At the reception where Suzanne meets André, two other characters burst into his life. David, a doctor and childhood friend of André, promises him a future of travel and freedom. Marianne, André's elder sister, shares a passion for art with Suzanne, and quickly falls under her spell.

About the film

This period film takes place in 1905, and deals with still quite current society issues, particularly the place of women in a constrained but privileged society.

Le château de la Mézière

Le château de la Mézière est une demeure habitée depuis 1893 par la même famille. Ce château de la vallée du Loir est construit sur une ville gallo-romaine d'où son nom de "Mézière".
Pendant des générations, il a appartenu à la famille de Taillevis, dont Raphaël de Taillevis était médecin et ami du roi de Navarre, Antoine de Bourbon, duc de Vendôme, père d'Henri IV.
Le Roi de Navarre et Jeanne d'Albret se sont mariés à Moulins (Allier) et sont venus en justes noces dans le Vendômois. Ils venaient régulièrement au château de la Mézière. Le poète Ronsard y trouva l'occasion de composer un poème rempli de délicatesse suite à ce royal évènement.
Depuis, le temps a passé, le château s'est transformé. Il conserve tout son charme, avec sa petite chapelle, son porche sculpté (1555) et ses cheminées incrustées d'ardoises comme à Chambord.
