Video: The Salamander and the Alchemist

[Paul Ferguson]

"Beneath the lavish veneer of the court of Fontainebleau, Francis I secretly nurtures an alchemical passion, guided by his mother, Anne of Savoy, in search of the "hidden truth" of matter. In his secluded study, he manipulates vials and grimoires, until one evening he encounters Françoise de Foix, herself heir to occult knowledge."

In French.
