Ce Qui Nous Tient Debout (2026)

Ce Qui Nous Tient Debout is a French documentary centered on sports journalist Matthieu Lartot and his personal experience living through cancer and its consequences. The film combines his testimony with the stories of other public figures, patients, carers, and people rebuilding their lives after serious illness.

Directed by Matthieu Lartot and Anouk Burel, the documentary approaches its subject through personal testimony rather than detached reportage. Rugby remains an important thread because it is closely connected to Lartot's identity, but the film broadens its focus to resilience, disability, family support, and the process of moving forward after treatment.
