Overview
- Netflix posted a deleted scene from its Knysna documentary that shows former France coach Raymond Domenech performing a tarot reading for the film crew.
- In the exchange, he answers the question “Will this film work?” by laying three cards he describes as energy, obstacles that call for patience, and the need for investment.
- He then reveals an ace of cups and predicts “it will work,” before adding with a laugh that “sometimes we get it wrong.”
- The documentary had already published pages from his diary, including a line on Thierry Henry’s August 17 birth date calling him “a banal Leo” who “looks at his navel.”
- Following the film’s release, Domenech said it was a biased attack and that promised oversight was denied, while producers countered that contributors had no approval rights and that he knowingly supplied 394 diary pages.
