La Légende de Thierry Mauvignier[1] · [2] · [3] · [4] · [5] · [6] is a French documentary feature film directed by Dylan Besseau released in December 2021.

Synopsis[edit]

In 2021, the director Thierry Mauvignier rewrote a local legend entitled La Tombe à l'enfant[7] · [8] · [9] which he renamed with his brother the writer Laurent Mauvignier La Légende des seigneurs assassins.[10] This documentary presents the long process that the director had to go through to complete his project[11] · [12] · .[13]

Context[edit]

Thierry Mauvignier rehabilitated with his brother Laurent Mauvignier, a poitevin legend[14] entitled La Tombe à l'enfant. The documentary retraces the long journey that the director had to undertake alongside his actors, in particular Frans Boyer, Yannick Jaulin, Joël Pyrène, Franck Beckmann or the writer Michel Cordeboeuf with an intimate approach. The director Dylan Besseau wanted to highlight the humanist and serious side that can be found in the film industry. Yannick Jaulin, a former survivor of the sect Order of the Solar Temple,[citation needed] evokes in this documentary his regret and his redemption through various philosophical thoughts and the way in which the role of villain that he embodies in Thierry Mauvignier's film, serves as an outlet for his regrets.[citation needed]
