Flo on France 2: Stéphane Caillard stars as Florence Arthaud, the Route du Rhum winner.

Stéphane Caillard portrays Florence Arthaud in Flo, set to air on France 2 on Sunday, November 1, 2026 at 9:10 p.m. Géraldine Danon makes her feature-film debut with a tribute to the yachtswoman who won the Route du Rhum in 1990.

The story revisits the journey of the woman nicknamed “the little fiancée of the Atlantic.” After a serious car crash, she chooses to devote herself to the sea and to build a life beyond the family framework she was destined for. Her solo triumph becomes one of the defining milestones of this path in a largely male‑dominated world.

Géraldine Danon co-writes the screenplay with writer Yann Queffélec. Centered on Stéphane Caillard, Alexis Michalik portrays Olivier de Kersauson, Alison Wheeler plays Yoyo, and Pierre Deladonchamps embodies Jean-Marie Arthaud. Presented at the Cinéma de la Plage in Cannes in 2023, the film opened in French theaters on November 1 of the same year.
