Première campagne

First Campaign

Freshly landed in the political department of TV station France 2, Astrid Mezmorian has to follow the youngest presidential candidate, Emmanuel Macron, for the start of his election campaign. It means two months of marathon for two novices ... For the one, it is the opportunity for an unprecedented reflection on her job, for the other it is the chance to conquer the Elysée. First Campaign is both an exceptional dive behind the scenes of France Télévisions, and reveals a new perspective on the presidential campaign.
