    "Le Paon consists of a collage and the animation of a short musical transmission by France 3 in 1992. A female singer renders the song of “Le Paon” by Debussy.  The piece is about a proud peacock, a man who stands by the church every day, waiting in vain for his bride, without ever losing his courage."
