INTERVIEW – The new film by the philosopher filmmaker entitled “Another Idea of the World”, broadcast this evening on Canal + at 9:05 p.m., is the poignant result of a year 2020 that BHL spent traveling the planet – Syria, Ukraine, Iraq, Libya, Nigeria, Somalia, Afghanistan… —to bear witness to those who fight for freedom. Interview truth.
After the publication in early May of his book On the road of nameless men (Grasset), Bernard-Henri Lévy returns with a shocking film also taken from his year spent in the most exposed regions of the world. First broadcast tonight exclusively on Canal +, Another idea of the world hits theaters in November.
