Marianne Garcia plays in “Les Invisibles” which she illuminates with her humor. She had known the street at 8 years old. She fought once morest the crab! Have a thought,” she wrote on Twitter.

In her book, “La Ch’tite courageous”, released in October 2021, the actress recounted her “shitty life”, her childhood in poverty and abuse.
