The funeral ceremony of Yves Boisset, the French filmmaker who passed away at the age of 86, took place at the Saint-Roch Church in Paris. His socially and politically engaged films — such as Dupont Lajoie, which tackled everyday racism — left a mark on the 1970s. " What I remember above all are his remarkable human qualities and a masterful body of work," says actor Christophe Malavoy, who appeared in several of Boisset’s films. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
