Filmed inside the Charlie Hebdo offices in 2006, this short film shows the magazine's cartoonists and editors at work on the cover that would make them a global flashpoint: a satirical drawing of Muhammad, produced in the middle of the international uproar over the Danish cartoons. The camera sits in on editorial meetings and drawing tables as staff argue over what the image should say and whether publishing it is worth the risk, treating the decision as a matter of editorial principle rather than provocation for its own sake. Nine years before gunmen killed twelve people in that same building, the footage catches the cartoonists as working journalists rather than symbols, joking, sketching, and debating deadline pressure like any newsroom. Watched now, the mundane details, the cluttered desks, the casual banter, carry a weight the filmmakers could not have intended. It is a small, plain record of a newsroom before it became a name attached to an atrocity.
