FAITS DIVERS, ENQUETE SUR LA MECANIQUE DU PIRE

Dominique Baudis, president of the CSA (Superior Audiovisual Comity), Karine Duchochois, a young housewife and mother from Outreau, Gérard Lhéritier, a businessman from Nice, all went through the same drama. Wrongly accused of being the authors of serious facts, they had their lives stripped away from them, their name, their reputation, their intimacy spread all over the press. Once found innocent, they remained the victims of a vast media trial that didn?t spare them anything. Through their testimony and that of their relatives, but also that of their prosecutors, this film proposes to show the wheels and the implacable mechanics of the skids of the press and to analyze their repercussions.
