Victor Hugo à Guernesey, exil et création (2019)

Director: Mathilde Deschamps-Lotthé

A visit to the extravagant house where Victor Hugo spent his exile in Guernsey between 1855 and 1870, the Hauteville House, entirely designed by the writer. This documentary also looks at a little-known aspect of Hugo: his talents as a decorator, architect and designer.
