    • Synopsis
    • Jossot to Gustave from Abdul Karim :
In 1905, just before the law separating Church and State was signed, Gustave Jossot, a gifted, nonconformist, anti-clerical, anti-just-about-every-kind-of-authority caricaturist and poster maker, drew one of France’s first political posters. When in 1913 he moved to Tunisia and converted to Islam, he was once again bucking the ideas of his times.
The film explores Jossot's world, North and South.
