Introduction of the film by Mr. Jean-Marc Sere-Charlet, Ministre Conseiller, Embassy of France. The Film Screening will be followed by a QnA session.
Quai D’Orsay is a parody of French diplomacy during the US-Iraq conflict (Iraq being substituted by the fictional country of Lousdemistan).
A comedy film by Bertrand Tavernier, Quai D’Orsay portrays the world of diplomacy and bureaucracy. Throughout the film Arthur, the freshly hired speech writer for the French Minister of foreign affairs Alexandre Taillard de Worms, is consistently hurled through a sea of endless rewrites and bureaucratic minutia, all the while, balancing the verbose personalities of the diplomats he is forced to work with.
Despite its intimate relation to French Culture and Politics, the film’s comedy is universal.
Free Entry. Open to all. For any further information, please write to [email protected].
