Jacques Anquetil (8 January 1934 – 18 November 1987) was a French road racing cyclist and the first cyclist to win the Tour de France five times, in 1957 and from 1961 to 1964. He stated before the 1961 Tour that he would gain the yellow jersey on day one and wear it all through the tour, a tall order with two previous winners in the field—Charly Gaul and Federico Bahamontes—but he did it. His victories in stage races such as the Tour were built on an exceptional ability to ride alone against the clock in individual time trial stages, which lent him the name "Monsieur Chrono". He won eight Grand Tours in his career, which was a record when he retired and has only since been surpassed by Ed…

NRThis portrait of Jacques Anquetil takes us on a journey beyond appearances, offering a deeper understanding and appreciation of both the sport and one of its greatest figures. The portrait of one of cycling’s most authentic champions, alongside Fausto Coppi, reveals two radically different sides of his personality: on the one hand, a cold, cautious and calculating public figure; on the other, and above all, a generous and flamboyant man in private. The film also offers a glimpse into the history of the period, taking us back to the dawn of a new era. Anquetil embodies France in the 1960s, a forerunner of modern France.
