Citroen SM, a car built by philosophers, poets and artists, has been made into a movie French.pl

Citroen SM is a legendary car, the peak success of the brand in the 1970s. David Elasiar made a film about it, which poetically tells the story of this amazing work of automotive art.

Citroën has created many cars throughout its history that have changed the course of history. The first car produced by Andre Citroën was mass produced and cheaper than the competition. The Traction Avant turned out to be such a superior design that the competition of the 1950s couldn’t quite match it. The Citroen DS was a spaceship in its era. The SM turned out to be the ultimate development of the concept of a comfortable, luxurious and powerful car. It is still a dream for many collectors today.

“The Citroën SM changed lives and influenced thousands of people, from Jay Leno to Johan Cruijff. Designed by an architect trained by an art philosopher, the Citroën SM is a car that only appears once in history. The Procekt S documentary is a search for the secret of good design and the effects of things on the heart. Speed, passion, raw power and elegance. The Citroen SM and Project S have it all.” – we read in the video description.
