Si la France savait: Edith Cresson dives into the life of France's first female Prime Minister. The documentary feels quite intimate, blending archival footage with contemporary interviews, giving a personal touch to Cresson’s political journey. You can sense the tension of her era, the struggles she faced, both in office and as a woman in a heavily male-dominated space. The pacing is deliberate; it allows you to soak in the context of her decisions. It's not flashy—no big budget effects here—but the storytelling is compelling enough to draw you in. The performances of those sharing their memories are raw and give a good sense of the atmosphere of the time. It’s distinct in how it humanizes a political figure often relegated to history books.
