On découvre ainsi qu'il appartient à une famille d'artistes dont les parents n'hésitent pas à mettre leur progéniture sur les planches et les plateaux de cinéma ou de télévision. Le métier connaît alors « les petits Maurin » que la maman, Mado Maurin, sait adroitement placer auprès des producteurs et réalisateurs. Le documentaire alterne ainsi des extraits de films et téléfilms et des entretiens avec son agent Serge Rousseau, Miou-Miou, sa fille Angèle Herry-Leclerc, ses épouses Sotha et Elsa-Malvina Chalier ainsi que le témoignage de plusieurs réalisateurs qui l'ont fait tourner parmi lesquels Bertrand Blier qui l'a reçu chez lui la veille de son suicide et avec lequel il a longuement dialogué.
