Daniel Cauchy. (Photo DR) Daniel left last night. I will not spread my sentence, but it turns out that he was a true friend since always. It was he who made me start in the small medium of commercial films, first actor of cinema then producer, it is therefore thanks to him that I was able to support my family for years. He was a man endowed with a humor that was matched only by his loyalty, I will always regret it. #danielcauchy #dearfriend #rip
