Hinrī Kīsīnjir-i Urupāyī: Persian 1402

The greatest diplomat of the 20th century for some, a controversial personality for others, Henry Kissinger leaves no one indifferent. In this very personal portrait, Jérémie Gallon retraces the extraordinary destiny of a little Jewish boy born in the heart of Europe, confronted from his childhood with the horrors of the Nazi regime, and who would become, a few decades later, the master of diplomacy American. He guides us on the path that led Henry Kissinger, a young refugee deprived of everything when he arrived at the age of fifteen in New York, to become the man who would make and break regimes, and redesign the great balances of the world. . At a time when Europe is facing the return of violent and dangerous times, the life and work of Henry Kissinger can be a compass for our leaders. It is in fact in the action and the figure of the one who is the direct heir of Talleyrand, Metternich or Bismarck, that there are many keys to building a stronger European diplomacy, the only one capable of enabling Europe to be an actor, and not just a witness, of History in progress.
