About Un berger et deux perchés à l'Elysée ?
The former shepherd, Jean Lassalle, decides to run in the presidential election. Neither one nor two, Pierre Carles and Philippe Lespinasse, two filmmakers labeled left, but a bit politically lost, decide to take action: They proclaim themselves his campaign advisers, with the secret ambition to reveal his true nature, that of an anti capitalist revolutionary, lost among the centrists for 30 years.
Directed by Pierre Carles, Philippe Lespinasse, Un berger et deux perchés à l'Elysée ? leans on a strong ensemble — Jean Lassalle, André Chassaigne, François Fillon — 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 documentary titles of 2019.
