Upcoming feature film, Bertrand Tavernier's "Quai d'Orsay" shoots scenes at the UN Security Council

On the 5th January, 2013, the United Nations Security Council opened its doors for renowned French film director Bertrand Tavernier, who, along with leading man, actor Thierry Lhermitte, shot a crucial scene for the upcoming feature film "Quai d'Orsay." The movie, which Tavernier says is a "dark comedy" is inspired by the famous French comic book of the same name, which chronicles the story of the French Foreign Ministry's inner workings at a moment of international crisis- the beginning of the war in Iraq. Lhermitte plays former French Foreign Minister Dominique de Villepin, delivering Villepin's famous speech about the French stance on the Iraq war.
