City of Dreams

Art historian Sandrine Voillet tells the story of how Paris rose up from the blood-stained streets of the French Revolution to become the world's first great modern city in just 100 years. From restaurants to Rodin, from boulevards to bistros and from photography to the Impressionist painters, Paris led the way in transforming how people lived, worked and played in cities.

Bohemian Rhapsody

Sandrine Voillet tells how the city embraced technology (the Lumiere Bros, Louis Renault and the Metro), counter-culture (Picasso, Josephine Baker and Serge Gainsbourg) and immigration to preserve its reputation as lighthouse city to the world. But it was not plain sailing: resistance to modernisation, the Occupation and rioting in the Banlieue tell a darker story and reveal problems unresolved to this day. Along the way, Sandrine meets Picasso's grandson and Jane Birkin.
