25 Days of Gays: The Auteuil Banquet (2016)

The French stage comedy The Auteuil Banquet (Le banquet d'Auteuil) tells the fictional story of famed playwright Molière (played by Jean-Baptiste Marcenac) becoming fed up with his wife's infidelity and retreating to a rental home in Auteuil, with his handsome young acting protégé Michel (played by Félix Beaupérin) and his longtime friend, writer Chapelle (played by Hervé Lassïnce). When Chapelle gathers a quirky group of gentlemen for a dinner party, things take a turn for the salacious as the group's mockery falls upon Molière after they become influenced by the ghost of Cyrano de Bergerac. The filmed stage production includes rear and frontal nudity from Félix, as well as Gonzague Van Bervesselès and Grégory Cartelier. Hervé appeared shirtless, alongside Roman Girelli & Antoine Baillet-Devallez.
