"I don't see how criticism of 'great male culture' is an attack": Interview with French director Étienne Gaudillère

Can we admire a work of art without approving of its creator? This is the question posed by director Étienne Gaudillère in his latest work. Inspired by the controversy surrounding the 2020 César awarded to Roman Polanski, the play questions our collective responsibility in the face of violence in the cultural world and the persistent cult of the "untouchable artist" in artistic circles. Gaudillère takes up this challenge not by singling out an individual, but by dissecting a system that has for too long protected its tormentors in the name of "genius". With humour, rigour and profound humanity, he takes on the arguments, explores the paradoxes and calls on controversial figures to stimulate an essential debate.
