Is there a pilot in the audience? by Jean-Pierre Martinez
On a plane, the director of a sensationalist magazine coincidentally meets an embalmer, who claims to have a bombshell news, making her dream of a record-braking circulation. Things get complicated because this encounter takes place on a Paris-Tokyo flight: twelve hours in confinement with no way to communicate with the outside world. Holding a scoop but being unable to publish it… A true Japanese torture!
Original title in French: Y a-t-il un pilote dans la salle
