Synopsis:

Why do you choose to be a war photographer? Do we have the right to photograph the suffering of others? What is responsible? Photographing to testify: a political gesture or a gesture for history? What is the role of editorial staff in field work? So many questions that this documentary tries to answer by proposing a series of interviews, against a backdrop of documents, on 50 years of war photographs. In the grip of their questions about the meaning of their profession, the greatest photographers of yesterday and today speak of their passion. A fascinating inventory of photojournalism where one discovers the daily lives of those who bear witness to all wars, sometimes risking their lives.
