Storyline

Romain Verley has known Michel Catalano since 2015. After January 9, he was the first journalist to interview him and film his devastated printing shop. For nearly 10 years, he has been a regular witness to its reconstruction. Yes, he survived the Kouachi brothers that day. Today, he is ready to tell his story. To deliver his truth since the attacks. This film follows his journey of resilience and sharing, punctuated by images and sounds from the 2015 attacks. It evokes a daily life that has been rebuilt around this event and looks back on the extreme violence of that day and the widespread violence of all those that followed.
