Plot

R2I, a famous news radio station, sends its best reporting duo to Iraq: Frank, journalist, and Poussin, sound engineer. Very quickly, millions of listeners follow their highly documented stories, reflecting the hot intensity of the fighting and the difficult survival of the population.

Sinekatalog’s take

A satirical comedy about two radio men whose war dispatches may not be quite what they seem. The idea about media and truth is clever, but the execution is spotty, so enjoy it mainly for the premise.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
