Synopsis

A democracy and a dictatorship. A presidential election campaign and dirty money. A deadly war. No-one can make sense of it, or so-believed Nicolas Sarkozy about his links with Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi. At his trial in early 2025, public prosecutors called for the former French president to be handed a seven-year jail sentence. This film will allow you to finally make sense of one of the biggest political scandals in France since the Second World War.
