In May of 1968, far from the tumult of the events that were unsettling France, Catherine Deneuve takes a break on Pampelonne Beach in Saint Tropez during the shooting of Alain Cavalier’s La Chamade, adapted from the eponymous novel by Françoise Sagan. The actress was already a star at the age of 25, having already shot more than as many films. In this one, she shared the spotlight with Michel Piccoli. They went on to appear together more than ten times during the course of their careers.
