Synopsis
A head of state, alone in an office, is constantly in contact with the world, with the media, with his mistress, his wife, his advisor.
We don't know if he has an exact knowledge of the world. Perhaps he is cut off from reality by the means of communication, locked up in a megalomaniacal and fanciful mental representation. In any case, he doesn't doubt his power to act on the world.
Is he really a president?
