Paris - Series 1 - City of Dreams

Documentary series about the history of the French capital. Art historian Sandrine Voillet tells the story of how Paris rose up from the blood-stained streets of the French Revolution to become the world's first great modern city in just 100 years. From restaurants to Rodin, from boulevards to bistros and from photography to the Impressionist painters, Paris led the way in transforming how people lived, worked and played in cities.
