The film is inspired by the true story of Mehdi Meklat, a young man who grew up in a French project on the outskirt of Paris and became a star journalist and an author celebrated by France’s mainstream media and left-leaning intellectual circles. But in 2017, as Meklat reached the apogee of his success, he was publicly shut down and dropped by his publisher after his heinous tweets – written under a pseudonym before becoming famous — were revealed. The movie follows this anti-hero’s downfall through the next 48 hours.

Le film s’inspire de l’histoire vraie de Mehdi Meklat, un jeune homme ayant grandi dans une cité en banlieue parisienne, devenu journaliste vedette et auteur célébré par les médias traditionnels français ainsi que par les cercles intellectuels de gauche. Mais en 2017, alors qu’il atteint le sommet de sa réussite, il est brutalement discrédité et abandonné par son éditeur, après la révélation de tweets haineux publiés sous pseudonyme avant sa célébrité. Arthur Rambo retrace la chute de cet anti-héros au cours des 48 heures qui suivent.
