Alain Riou

Coude à coude is an episode of Gérard Courant's Filmed Carnets that follows Velo Love (July 1 to 3, 1996), in which journalist and screenwriter Alain Riou proposed to the filmmaker to accompany him by bike on the course of the mountain stage of the Tour de France, Chambéry-Les Arcs.

Périssable paradis II (Notes pour un monde nouveau) is therefore the result of an anachronism. Indeed, it benefited from funding that I never requested, whereas many of my films were produced without any financial assistance, even though I did everything I could to secure it!
