what are you talking about

30-year-old Gabriel joins a prestigious reporting program. He should very quickly find his place in the team of great reporters.

Despite the commitment of Vincent, their editor-in-chief, they face the daily life of a changing profession with ever-dwindling resources amid new news channels. With a passion for the search for truth, a sense of humor and solidarity, they will try everything to rediscover the faith of their origins and reinvent themselves.

In the heart of the team of reporters

Awarded the Golden Lion for Short Film at the 2006 Venice Film Festival (How to Brake Downhill) and highlighted by the Césars for Most Promising Female and Best Promising Male received in 2012 by Clotilde Hesme and Grégory Gadbois for his feature film. Angèle et Tony, Alix Delaporte is back with what may have been a slap in the face of French cinema at the beginning of the year.

Vivants, a film in which the director casts impressive actors in journalist costumes, hits theaters this February 14th. Bluffing in the guise of a new recruit to the reporting program’s editorial team, Alyssa Isaz responds to Pascal Arbilot, Pierre Lottin, Jean-Charles Cliché, Vincent Elbaz, not forgetting the editor-in-chief portrayed by Roshdi Zem. Presented in official selection out of competition at the 2023 Venice Film Festival, this rhythmic and realistic drama restores the nobility of the profession and is inspired by the filmmaker’s life.

Before directing fiction, Alix Delaporte made his debut as a journalist-cameraman at the agency CAPA, where he could sign accounts for Nulle Part Elsewhere or even the documentary Comme dans un rêve about Zinedine Zidane. Expertise we find at the heart of Vivants, a fascinating dive behind the scenes of a changing world that will keep you on the edge of your seat for 1 hour 23 minutes. We will meet on February 14 at the cinema.
