His first feature film, L'Amour à la mer (1962), starred Juliette Greco, Romy Schneider and Jean-Pierre Léaud. Patrick Jouan featured in many of his films. He also worked for television with productions such as Dim, Dam, Dom and Pour le plaisir.

His latest films include Le Crime d'amour (1982), with Richard Berry and Jacques Penot, and Nuit docile (1987).
