Comment

This film surfe on the vagueness of the success of the character Mickael Kael created by Benoit Delépine for the television channel Canal+. Currycomb by criticism, the film was a commercial failure, in spite of its good reconstitution of the daily newspaper of the journalists sent on the ground. This parodic work can be regarded as a reflection on the world of information and its drifts.
