After "Les Enfants du Soleil" in which ferdinand Faure, a young actor from Aix-en-Provence arrived in Paris and received his sentimental education at the hands of Clémence, our hero now tackles the terrible hardships of stage training. Indeed, poor ferdinand finds himself up against Ariane, Ariane the Great of the Cartoucherie Theatre. The actors all do improvisations in Commedia dell'arte masks. Between the distress of Bruno who can't manage to "get into" the troupe and the insistence of Ariane who urges all the masked actors to step beyond their private defences, something crazy, funny and desperate emerges : the Golden Age !

Jours de colère poster

We are in the aftermath of 1968, when terrible angers erupt, those of Ariadne against the comedians who do not find their characters and the rebellion of the comedians who can no longer stand Ariadne's demands. These days of anger are those during which, in extremis, the show is made and finally played.
