Quai D'Orsay 2013

From anchovy diplomacy to civil wars, a riotous take on the follies of French government, embodied in a no-holds-barred satirical portrait of a foreign minister whose style and verbiage are the wrappings for an empty box. As his staff and speechwriters struggle to cover gaffes and avoid wars, Tavernier probes - and cauterises - issues of global politics, European relations, and contemporary parties in government.
