THE AUDIENCE BEHIND THE BIRTH OF THE SERIES

Available on myCANAL and broadcast every Monday evening on CANAL +, L’Amour Flou is a bubble of humor and emotion by Romane Bohringer. If this title means anything to you, it’s probably because before taking the form of a series, this project was released on the big screen in 2018.

Awarded at the Angoulême Festival, the film tells about the unconventional breakup between Romane and Philippe who are no longer in love, but still love each other. After such a success, the idea of ​​a sequel seems obvious, and yet Romane Bohringer did not believe it.

“Philippe and I were not ready! The film seemed to us to be our only object, our fulgurance, our testament. ” Driven by the enthusiasm of the public, by the adventures lived during 2 years and by the CANAL + team which has “reactivated his desire”, The duo finally agreed to decline the rest of their story in 9 episodes.

“People would ask us: “But how will life be in this Department? Is it really possible? … We want to stay with you, we want to know the rest …”

A SMALL FILMING TEAM

Driven by the desire to keep the wind of freedom that blew in the making of the feature film, the production chose to limit as much as possible the people present on the film set.

“We decided to produce the series with an extremely small team. ” This is how the real Department in which the Rebbot-Bohringer have lived for 3 years has become a studio, with the family relocated nearby during the shooting.

If she emphasizes dedicating “a great admiration for a long time” to technical positions, Romane Bohringer wanted here at all costs to be freed from all constraints to give birth to the unexpected: “no make-up, no script, very little machinery, use natural light as much as possible. ”

“My assistant has been in turn script, nose powder, hair advisor, actress, our props has grown six arms to meet all our expectations …, she says. It is their generosity, their inventiveness and their talent that made this adventure possible. Adventure which is to this day one of the happiest moments of my life.”

THE BLUR BETWEEN FICTION AND REALITY

Particularly appreciating autofiction in cinema, Romane Bohringer likes the whimsical and the fable just as much: “How to tell the extremely intimate while making a collective adventure? This is what obsessed me throughout the making of the series. ”

Thus, the director / actress has flirted with the fine border between reality and fiction to give birth to 9 episodes digging into the fantasized to let out a real sincerity. “You could say that everything is true in the series, she decrypts. But it is as if we had invented fictional doubles for everyone. There are us everywhere, but made up, hidden under the fabric of fiction. ”

However, the life of Romane Bohringer emanates from each scene and each choice of characters: “The spectator will never know that the man who comes to pick up my father to take him on stage is our real manager, that the maternity team is really the one who helped us give birth to our children …”
