Alain Kan is a legendary figure in French rock—and in rock music in general. His mysterious disappearance one day in April 1990 in Paris, at the age of 45, left a lasting impression. Alain Kan’s story is that of a little boy who wanted to become a star. To live in the spotlight. From his first single in 1963, at the age of 19, to his last album in the mid-1980s, his artistic journey led him through every kind of creation, every excess, every passion, and every twist of fate. He was, in turn, a heartthrob for teenage girls, then a David Bowie lookalike, and finally France’s first punk.

"Bains de minuit" (Midnight Baths) was a late-night talk show hosted by Thierry Ardisson on La Cinq in the late 1980s, filmed in the famous Parisian nightclub Les Bains Douches. Ardisson interviewed personalities from the worlds of music, film, fashion, literature, sports, and politics, seated among the audience in the club's authentic atmosphere. The concept was to immerse these personalities in the world of nightlife and festivities, far removed from traditional television studios. The interviews were often irreverent and direct, with a provocative tone that would become Ardisson's trademark. He considers this show one of his freest and most audacious creations. It helped solidify his image as a cosmopolitan, transgressive, and highly scripted late-night talk show host.

Carmela is almost sixteen. She has just lost her mother and is suddenly sent to a boarding high school in Montpellier, the city of her paternal grandparents, after having spent her entire life in Spain. When the holidays arrive, she travels to Seville to see Luis again—an elderly Romani cantaor, her mother’s former partner and her lifelong accomplice. These reunions, the screening of a film they were never able to finish eight years earlier, and the upheavals of a minority which, in the age of technology, longs to integrate, abruptly sacrificing all the specific traits that had tirelessly shaped it until then, will entail—beyond the mourning of childhood—the realization of a paradise forever lost.
