Un film attachant et réaliste sur les migrants, sans dramaturgie excessive. Benjamin Biolay au mieux de sa forme en vieux dragueur taciturne. Le courage et l’abnégation des bénévoles des associations qui s’occupent des migrants sont admirablement retranscrits. Dommage que ce film ait fait l’objet de critiques haineuses sur les réseaux…
Synopsis
After being reassigned from music to field reporting, a critic goes to a refugee camp near Paris during an evacuation. He experiences police violence and is thrust into becoming the face of the refugee cause.
