La parfaite histoire

Details

La parfaite histoire propose une réflexion captivante et intimiste sur les enjeux éthiques et moraux entourant la relation qu’entretiennent une correspondante étrangère et un jeune réfugié somalien. En révélant les limites du journalisme et du cinéma actuels, le film s’interroge sur la façon dont on choisit et dont on raconte les histoires et sur les personnes à qui il revient de le faire.
