Molière pour rire et pour pleurer

Episode Synopsis

Jealous of Molière’s success, Lully tries to discredit him in the eyes of the King. Crushed by debt, the composer dreams of claiming Molière’s author royalties. Meanwhile, Molière — aged and greatly weakened — has withdrawn to the countryside to write. Despite the melancholy consuming him, he refuses to give up performing The Imaginary Invalid, his final swan song.
