Short description

A glimpse at the life of French singer Serge Gainsbourg, from growing up in 1940s Nazi-occupied Paris through his successful song-writing years in the 1960s to his death in 1991 at the age of 62.

What's left behind the scenes

The film became the last cinematic work for Lucy Gordon, who played the role of Jane Birkin. The 28-year-old actress hanged herself in her Paris apartment; the reasons remain unknown.
