At 84, Shimon Peres is one of the last great players on the international political scene. He is also a terrific storyteller, a past master at relating a captivating tale. Christiane Vulvert and Samuel Lajus spent two weeks in his company in Tel Aviv: He accepted to talk about himself. The story of this Jewish child whose family emigrated to Palestine in 1934 is in itself a magnificent story. Then came his meetings with Ben Gurion, Sadat, Kennedy, Bill Clinton. Peres talks in close quarters about the great events, from the founding of state of Israel to the major peace talks. Peres's words are illustrated by rare archive footage and the subject's personal photos as we are taken on an incredible journey into history.
