Le pari des Jeux
A close-up of the final weeks of preparation for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, from the arrival of the Olympic Flame in Marseille to the final preparations for an opening ceremony that is unprecedented in the history of the Games. This documentary offers a unique opportunity for viewers to enter places that are usually inaccessible to the general public. Meet the men and women who have been working for months to make this event a major popular celebration with international influence, and who prove, through their commitment, that surpassing oneself is not just a sporting value, but that it can permeate all areas of life.

La dernière ligne droite
The highlights of the preparations for the Games took place behind the scenes: in the secret meetings held at the Elysée Palace, behind the scenes at the Concorde and Champ-de-Mars construction sites, in the bowels of the Eiffel Tower, and at the heart of the arrangements for the Flame's arrival in Marseille.

Sous le ciel de Paris
When day breaks on July 26, 2024, the blue sky is collapsing. On the morning of the Opening Ceremony of the Paris 2024 Games, France is out of breath. It is raining cats and dogs in Paris. Some SNCF lines are sabotaged. The country is divided. Will the security of the ceremony be ensured? Will the event be the expected success? Twelve hours later, France is on top of the world. It is this unique day that serves as the narrative arch for this story of the Olympic and Paralympic Games. From Tony Estanguet's morning phone call to Teddy Riner and Marie-José Perec, whom he chooses as the last torchbearers, to "The Hymn to Love" on the Eiffel Tower, this July 26 allows us to tell the Games differently.
