After having followed the 2012 presidential campagne, Mathieu Sapin gave his all to get into the Elysée. Ushered from office to office, he ended up sending a text message to Francois Hollande himself to get the authorisation. The president accepted the project, and introduced Mathieu to the ‘château’, as those who work there call it. An exceptional report giving an inside perspective on the workings of the Elysée and the busy life of its famous occupant.
