A figure straight out of a novel by Victor Hugo. Each day, the hunchback emerges from the depths of the metropolis to perform a ritual of vivid and bizarre beauty in the shadow of the Centre Pompidou. The man is filthy and eccentric and insults the police officers who try to get him to move on. But he is also a tender and devoted magician with the power to unleash a storm of doves.
