Première campagne
First Campaign
Als die junge Journalistin Astrid Mezmorian ihre neue Stelle beim Fernsehsender France Télévisions antritt, wird sie beauftragt, zum ersten Mal eine Wahlkampfkampagne zu begleiten: die richtungsweisende des Präsidentschaftskandidaten Emmanuel Macron. Die Einsteigerin verbringt diesen zweimonatigen Marathon unterwegs, mitten im medialen Gedränge, hinter und vor der Kamera, immer mit Stift oder Mikro in der Hand. Der Dokumentarfilm Première Campagne begleitet sie bei dieser aufregenden Tour de Force und eröffnet zugleich einen spannenden Blick hinter die Kulissen der politischen Berichterstattung. (Katharina Riedler)
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.
