After a trilogy of films released between 2013 and 2017, Gaumont has decided to produce a reboot of Belle et Sébastien, the adaptation of the cult 1960s soap opera, and set the plot of Belle et Sébastien: Nouvelle Génération in our own time. The film, broadcast this Friday, July 28 on Canal+ at 9:10pm, is directed by Pierre Coré, a veteran of children's films(Sahara, L'aventure des Marguerites).
In the role of little Sebastien, the production team has chosen Robinson Mensah-Rouanet, whose first film as an actor. But he's well supported by Michèle Laroque (Joyeuse Retraite, Ténor, Alors on danse), Alice David(Babysitting, Qu'est-ce qu'on a fait tous au bon Dieu) and Caroline Anglade(Tout simplement Noir, All Inclusive, Divorce Club).
Sébastien, 10, reluctantly spends his vacations in the mountains with his grandmother and aunt. His job is to help out in the sheepfold - nothing too exciting for a city boy like Sébastien... but that's without counting on his encounter with Belle, a huge dog mistreated by her master. Ready to do anything to avoid injustice and protect his new friend, Sébastien is in for the wildest summer of his life.
