Propulsée ministre des affaires étrangères, une directrice d'ONG respectée découvre les coulisses absurdes de la diplomatie. Présentée ainsi, cela ne me donnait pas du tout envie de regarder cette mini-série ! Dommage, parce que c'est drôle.... Les 3 premiers épisodes valent vraiment le coup. Je me suis un peu lassé pendant le 4ème, mais l'ensemble vaut quand même le coup d'être regardé.
Synopsis
Marie Tessier, 45, director of an NGO, is appointed Minister of Foreign Affairs on the day when five Europeans, including two French were taken hostage by terrorists in the Sahel..

Viewers find 'Under Control' a humorously sharp take on political life, with Léa Drucker praised for her compelling performance as a novice minister navigating the chaotic world of diplomacy. While the series starts strong, some feel it loses momentum, and its exaggerated portrayal of politics might not resonate with everyone. Overall, it's seen as an entertaining, albeit brief, exploration of political absurdities.
👍 Léa Drucker's performance is a standout.
👎 Some find the political satire too exaggerated.
