The story

What Is Being Jacques Chirac About?

The premise of Being Jacques Chirac without spoilers.

Since 1967 Jacques Chirac has been a constant presence on French television, his gestures and speeches captured in countless hours of archival footage. This mock‑documentary stitches the material together, narrated in the first person by imitator Didier Gustin. Humor comes from contradictions in the President’s statements, and the title nods to the French version of Being John Malkovich.
