The mustache is endangered! For centuries, it was a sign of virility and authority. Full of humourous yet sensible investigation, seriously researched, entertaining and instructive, featuring mustache champions, popular icons, specialists and a rich palette of archives, the film proposes a rediscovery of mustache history and of its evolution: an offbeat and original look on virility and male identity, embodied by the director, facing a deep hesitation on having one or having not.
Mathias Desmarres was born in Paris and lives in Bruxelles. Since 2005 he has worked on various productions in France and Belgium. His directed Les mots de madame Jacquot (2006), Loin de Rome (2009) and Solvay (2012).
