..... a writer whose thrillers were transferred to the screen with success "l'Assassinat Du Père Noel" "Goupi Mains Rouges" "Les Disparus De Saint Agil".
This miniseries,very faithful to the book (one name or two were changed),tells the story of a little boy ,Noël,whose father is a millionaire ;but alas he is also a widower and he remarried a woman full of herself with whom he had another child.Poor Noel feels rejected and his attempts to belong to Dominique's pack at school fail because he is the teachers ' blue-eyed boy,making a clean sweep of all the prizes .
One day ,Noel is abducted .The shy little boy will display a lot of guts and prove himself a resourceful brat.
A fine miniseries for the whole family.
Some of the actors (the sinister-looking Daniel Emilfork and Geneviève Brunet were ,thirty years later,part of the cast of "la Cité Des Enfants Perdus "(Jeunet) ,a story of kidnapped children too.
