Details: From the Studio Louis Cyr is an exceptional being who was catapulted into Legend thanks to his many exploits. It is not only the story of this mythical hero, but also the story of an extremely vulnerable man, a man who overcame several fights, the toughest of which took place outside the sports arena. Son of a family of expatriate textile workers in the "USA", Louis Cyr decides one day to take his life in hand by setting out to conquer the title of the strongest man on the planet. If none of the many obstacles he encounters seem to be able to stop the athlete, it is quite different for the man. Cyr maintains a marked inferiority complex vis-à-vis his wife, who loves the arts and letters. His resounding success which propels him into high society only accentuates this malaise, undermines him psychologically and will end up alienating his own daughter.
