Ceux de Saint-Cyr

The military establishment opens itself up with difficulty to the outsider’s eye and the Ecole de Saint-Cyr is no exception. Son and brother of Saint-Cyr graduates, Philippe Constantini followed the students from a class of officers over a one-year period and was able, with his camera, to plunge into this micro-society. A chronicle that enables us to understand how a process of initiation and adhesion to certain values moulds the Saint-Cyr ideal.
