 SUMMARY : |
| How did this little fishing port become one of the trendiest places in the world in just under 50 years? As they do every July, the media (press and TV) give us their summer chestnut: St Tropez with its parties, extravaganza, celebs, billionaires, and enormous cabin cruisers...
We put St Tropez back into context and look at the fishing, the Tartan boats with their huge white sails, the first artists to visit the peninsula, such as Paul Signac (who in 1892 called the town the eighth wonder of the world), Colette, Mistinguette and the Provence landings on one of the local beaches,...
Because we decided to take a look at St Tropez from an historical point of view and thanks to Laurent Bergers, a writer and film director from St Tropez, we are able to unearth the people, secrets, stories, pictures and accounts never seen before... For the very first time, people from St Tropez talk about St Tropez!
We go back to all the famous spots such as the Place des Lices, Sénéquier with its cake shops, the Escale and its high-society customers, Club 55, the sites where the film "And God created Woman" was shot, the Café des Arts with Jean Marie Riviere's shows, the Papagayo where Claude François started his career, the Voile Rouge,...,...
We relive its legends such as Bardot, Eddy Barclay, Françoise Sagan, Günther Sachs, Vachon, "The Gendarme of St. Tropez", …
Because in fact nobody really knows the truth behind St Tropez...
