A discussion about the French film "Martin Eden" revolves around the character Pierre's disliking towards the protagonist, Martin Eden, and the consequences that ensue from their dynamic.
The town in 16th century France was divided between Pierre and Martin, with some believing that Martin was guilty while others believed it to be Pierre. The power of stories played a significant role in shaping their perceptions and beliefs.
A man named Pierre suspected that a soldier named Arnaud was having an affair with his wife. It turned out that Martin and Arnaud looked almost identical and some of Martin's friends even mistook Arnaud for Martin.
