Romain Goupil(I)
- Director
- Actor
- Writer
Politically committed to the left, Romain Goupil, born in 1951, is the
most eloquent representative of the spirit of the revolution of May
1968. From his first feature in 1982,
Mourir à 30 ans (1982) to his
latest to date
Les mains en l'air (2010), he
has managed to remain faithful to his ideals, quite a feat if you think
of all of his fellow revolutionaries who have changed sides, lured by
money and/or power. His films, whether documentaries or fiction, have
failed -with one or two exceptions - to draw large audience but they
will remain a mirror of a whole generation.
