From small-town France to Parisian cabarets, Pilou’s story reveals a hidden world rarely documented. A portrait of queer life before repression returned.
In 1920s Europe, before fascism reshaped the continent, a brief moment of freedom emerged. Through personal photos and journals, this documentary traces the life of a young gay man (Pilou) discovering desire, identity, and artistic expression in the Roaring Twenties.
