Weak Sidney Lumet like political drama

This plot reminded me some Sidney Lumet's work, I don't why...Maybe the choice of the subject, scheme...But the result is definitely not NETWORK nor POWER. However, the actors are quite good, especially Nicole Garcia, as usual. Serge Leroy once more makes a drama speaking of the modern society failures, as he has done all long his brief career. It is a plot that asks many questions without necessarily giving answers. Yes, it's rather good, but do not compare it with Sidney Lumet or Norman Jewison's movies. It is a material from the eighties, noot the best decade for this kind of subject. One decade earlier, it would have been terrific. More production frreedom, I mean. I guess.
