A president who couldn't keep a secret... finally spills them all.
How did François Hollande, elected President of the Republic in 2012, who had never been a minister before and therefore had little experience in international relations, tackle major foreign policy issues when he became head of state? At the head of a country like France, a permanent member of the UN Security Council and a nuclear power, was he up to the challenges of what is known as presidential diplomacy? For the first time, a president of the Republic agrees to reveal what goes on behind the scenes, his personal relationships with his counterparts.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Hollande's 2017 exit from politics was so abrupt that this documentary represents his first authorized attempt at legacy control.
The film's directors previously made 'Un président ne devrait pas dire ça...' about Hollande's 2016 book—this is essentially the visual apology tour.
