Special Correspondents
Released October 2nd 2012
A film by Frédéric Auburtin
Produced by Manuel Munz
With Gérard Jugnot, Gérard Lanvin, Omar Sy, Valérie Kaprisky and Anne Marivin
Famous news radio station R2I sends its best duo of reporters – journalist Frank (Gérard Lanvin) and sound engineer Poussin (Gérard Jugnot) – to Iraq. Very soon, millions of listeners are following their well-researched, "on-the-spot" reports, reflecting the intensity of the conflict and the difficult survival of the population. The day Frank and Poussin are taken as hostages, a large-scale solidarity movement is organised to secure their release: rallied around the slogan "a euro for our hostages", there is a mass mobilisation of French people. But the major concern for Frank and Poussin, our two very special correspondents, is not really the hostage-taking: their true problem is that they’ve never set foot in Iraq, and the breathless reports that have made them famous are recorded from the Barbes area of Paris.
