Claude François was the French Gary Glitter – a 70s pop sensation. True to his legendary status, he lectrocuted himself in the bath. Bernard Fréderic (Benôit Poelvoorde) is the world-best Claude François imitator, and aims to win the title in the „Grand Doubles Night“ show on TV. But his wife Vero (Julie Depardieu) would rather be married to Bernard than to an icon… Packed full of French disco pop, „Podium“ is Yann Moix’ directorial debut.
