Exclusive footage of an Iconic Artist!
"Between 1996 and 2011, Gabrielle Crawford filmed her friend Jane Birkin.
Camera in hand, the friend of the singer and actress traverses the backstage of her life, collecting her words during interviews. These are raw, unedited footage where Jane Birkin shares the stage with her musicians, as well as her microphone with renowned artists: Françoise Hardy, Beth Gibbons, Etienne Daho, Miossec, Manu Chao… During concert rehearsals, she reinterprets the legendary songs written by Serge Gainsbourg: Elisa, La chanson de Prévert, Amours des feintes… and others more contemporary that are notably found in the album ‘Arabesque’.
Jane B in the studio or on tour, but also in complete intimacy. From her native England to Breton kitchens, passing through her Parisian apartment, she shares her daily life, her recipes. Closely followed by her bulldogs Betty and Dora, moments of life are captured: the birthday of her mother Judy Campbell, the complicity with her daughter Lou, her trip to Samoa… Jane is smiling, passionate, natural… a focus on the famous artist, so british !
