the life story of scientist and author, Carl Sagan.

Swedish Documentary

Sagan om ringen is a 1971 Swedish live action television film in two parts, adapting the first part of The Fellowship of the Ring. The film was inspired by the progressive rock album of the same name, by Bo Hansson (in turn inspired by J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings).

Serving as an intimate and cinematic portrait of Sagan, the Untitled Carl Sagan Documentary will explore his love story with partner Ann Druyan and with science. The film will include exclusive audio recordings, archival clips and animation, along with interviews with his family, friends and colleagues. With the full support of Sagan’s family and friends, the film will present a fascinating look into the life and career of one of the world’s most inspiring and revolutionizing scientists of our time.

Carl Sagan did more to popularize science than any man on the planet, sharing his wonder and fascination with the mysteries of the universe with millions. He was the rarest of all creatures: the celebrity scientist. While some accused him of being a grandstander, none can deny that his approach to science helped introduce millions of people to the great wonders of the universe that fascinated him all his life. Carl Sagan played many roles: professor, working scientist, bestselling author and TV personality. In his classic television series, he brought science to the masses in an accessible, entertaining format. But he also performed groundbreaking research in astronomy, and was willing to risk his reputation to investigate the possibility of extraterrestrial life. Explore the remarkable life of this visionary scientist from his childhood to his death from bone marrow disease at 62.

Après avoir écrit Bonjour Tristesse à 18 ans, Françoise Sagan est devenue une romancière à succès respectée, riche et célèbre, qui mène la vie qu'elle entend. Une vie plutôt dissolue où elle est entourée de nombreux amis. Un soir, au casino de Deauville, elle gagne une énorme somme qui lui permet d'acheter enfin la belle maison qu'elle loue à Honfleur, sur la côte normande. Une maison qu'elle jure ne jamais quitter. Sauf que la vie en décidera autrement et que bien des amis finiront par lui tourner le dos.
