12 Avr Documentary: Follow Me – François Sagat
Follow Me François Sagat
Prompted by Cyrille Marie, program director at Pink TV and a close friend of François, the project began with a cover of Amanda Lear’s « Follow Me ». François Sagat speaks candidly about the challenges he faces as a sex worker, often struggling for legitimacy when expressing himself outside of that world.
He discusses his personal battles, his youth as a gay man, and the physical transformation of his body. Psychologist Carole Groulet provides insights into the emotional journey of public figures like François, who explains how sports helped build his self-confidence.
« Follow Me offers a rich and nuanced immersion into the world of François Sagat, highlighting his quest for artistic expression and resilience against prejudice. An intimate look at a man in constant exploration of himself. »
