Paris minuscule - PANAME - France 3 - Magazine complet

Off to Saint-Ouen to meet Nicolas Pierre, a miniature artist. He welcomes us into the "organized chaos" of his apartment-studio, where he immortalizes buildings and streets, primarily in the north of the capital. Nicolas recreates the daily lives of thousands of Parisians in miniature, down to the smallest detail! Look closely and you'll see: graffiti, fallen leaves, and signs—everything is there to help you find your way around! A visit to the Paris Zoological Park, home to all sorts of animals, from the largest to the smallest, like leafcutter ants. But today, Paname is focusing on a special specimen! Neither plant, nor animal, nor fungus, the blob is truly extraordinary! This single-celled organism, despite having neither a mouth, nor a stomach, nor eyes, is perfectly capable of detecting the presence of food and ingesting it. We meet up with Frédérick Gersal at the Hôtel de Beauvais for a fascinating anecdote! By introducing us to this exceptional place and its little stories, Frédérick allows us to immerse ourselves in the history of Paris! Rodolphe Groizard founded Wonderland Pastry Shop, which rivals the wonderful world of Alice in Wonderland! Just steps from Denfert-Rochereau, he opens the doors to a magical world where each pastry is a miniature representation of something the pastry chef loves. His cakes are little miniature universes: cacti, sea urchins, cherry blossoms, mushrooms, bonsai trees… Yvan takes us to the Army Museum and, above all, the fascinating Museum of Relief Maps. Accompanied by Isabelle Warmoes, he visits a unique collection of relief maps, miniature scale models of 17th-century fortresses! Mireille Sueur is in charge of the most impressive collection of snow globes in France. Arranged and organized on shelves, more than 3,000 glass globes await the playful hand to turn them upside down and animate glitter and snowflakes. It's an impressive collection of miniature scenes, all contained within her apartment! At just 2.5 meters wide, this building-cum-closet, constructed in the mid-17th century, holds the record for narrowness! Number 13 Quai Voltaire was originally a passageway connecting two streets or providing access to the courtyard of a private mansion situated on a set-back plot. Then, this astonishing building was added above the entrance, creating this remarkable architectural landscape!
