Synopsis
An archive-based film that pays homage to France's biggest actor of all time, President Jacques Chirac. Since the late 1960s, President Chirac has appeared on French TV daily and bestowed upon the French robotic gestures, choppy diction and delirious ranting for hours and hours. In the final chapter of his Presidential term, what if Jacques Chirac decided to "tell all" and set the record straight at the final hour of reckoning? That is the premise, told mockumentary style, by revisiting the most telling "Chirac-ims" through archival footage and giving Chirac's own version of his life in politics through a narrator who mimics his distorted diction to perfection. This is how reality outshines fiction.
