"Tous les matins du monde" is a French film based on a book of the same name.

In the same year of the book's release, Pascal Quignard together with director Alain Corneau adapted the novel to the film that stared Jean-Pierre Marielle and Gérard Depardieu. The film is currently distributed by Koch-Lorber Films.

It stars Gérard Depardieu as he revisits the life of his character, a late 17th century composer named Marin Marais. Narrated by Marais, the story revolves around his life as a musician, his mentor Monsieur de Sainte-Colombe and his love interests. The haunting sound of his instrument, the viol (viola da gamba), here played by Jordi Savall, is heard throughout the movie and plays a major role in setting the mood. Though fictional, the story is based on historical characters.
