The Kidnapping of Michel Houellebecq
Director:
Guillaume Nicloux
September 16th 2011. The press reports on one story: star author Michel Houellebecq, winner of the prestigious Prix Goncourt in 2010, has been abducted. Some members of the media go so far as to suggest that Al-Qaeda may be involved, feeding buzz and speculation. A brazen kidnapping? An identity crisis? A schizophrenic delirium? Michel will never provide the media with any rational explanation for what happened to him.
