Synopsis:
A cultural history of one of Paris's most fascinating and variegated areas, whose history can be summarized as ''from riches to rags and back again.' From beating heart of fashionable Paris in the Middle Ages to run-down, largely Jewish neighbourhood and post-restoration chic gay habitat, the Marais has probably undergone more major changes in its identity than any other Paris quartier.
