About The Journalist
Anna, a young French educated bourgeois lady is a famous and talented television journalist. She lives with Horst, a political man, 20 years older than her. Believing that she leads the perfect love, her editor in chief confidentially shows her, before publication, compromising pictures of her husband in a very scandalous position. The scandal will soon be revealed to all... Blackmail, campaign for destabilization, revenge or reality? Under the guise of a report, Anna and her not so prude female collaborator will try anything to discover the truth, without hesitating to give all of themselves. This investigation will drive her to an S&M mistress, sale of slaves in parking lots, a gang bang in swinger clubs...and on the trail of a very secret organization called « Fidelia ».
Directed by Pascal Lucas, The Journalist leans on a strong ensemble — Anna Polina, Denisa Heaven, Clanddi H Jinkcego — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 2012.
