Canadian (with French citizenship) to practice in France

Hi everyone! I'm doing my Juris Doctor in Canada and will be passing my bar exam in 3 years. I was born in Canada so I have my canadian citizenship and since my parents are from France I also have my french citizenship. I would like get some information on the steps I should take to be able to practice law in France. Since I'll have a Juris Doctor and I have the french citizenship, would I only have to pass the bar exam in France? Or would I have to pass the LLM in France and then the bar exam there as well? Also, could I just work in an international law firm?
