Unknown early Depardieu performance

I did not know this short film at all, never heard of it, even after all those decades and the fantastic Gerard Depardieu's fame. This short story is also fascinating, riveting, where Depardieu steals the film, showing his early tremendous skills. The tale of a common French unemployed guy who suddenly meets a stranger in a Paris cafe - Jean Topart. That's exactly the kind of stuff which I search,rare and not intellectual, as so many short features now, in the 2020's. The plot is simple but sharp, effective, splendidly acted and told. It should have been made for a longer movie. If you are a Gerard Depardieu's fan, don't miss this one.
