The life and soul of the party (long version)

At the request of Patrick Chesnais, Eric Toledano and Olivier Nakache agreed to write and direct a short film called 'The life and soul of the party' ("Le Bon Vivant" in french), which aims to raise young people's awareness of the risks of drink-driving.

The movie tells the story of Lucas and his group of mates. Five young contemporary university students, enjoying life to the full and partying at night, just as we all wanted to do when we were 20 and had our lives ahead of us.

This video is the second work in an effort to raise awareness through images that was started in December 2013 by the Association Ferdinand and the VINCI Autoroutes Foundation with the first video called Ivresse (Drunk), directed by Guillaume Canet, which had a huge impact on the general public.
