ARTE will show documentary on Saturday 29th January at 4.30 pm “Who is Boris Johnson?” (By Alice Cohen, ARTE France/Morgan Productions, France 2021, 52 min.) And looks at one of the most popular but most controversial politicians in Great Britain, who is currently under immense pressure due to lockdown parties and her concerns. What is needed is his political career.

To many, he is the slapstick, Trump-affin, and protectionist populist. But Boris Johnson is much more. A graduate of Eton and Oxford, he is highly intelligent, generous and a true EU expert. Behind the mask of a witty clown he hides the ego consumed by the acquired elitist snobbery of the British upper class and longing for recognition. How did this man turn from court clown to political king? Is Boris Johnson’s transformation a metaphor for the UK as a whole?

Saturday 29 January at 4.30 pm as a TV premiere and From January 22 at ARTE Mediatheque, Already on ARTE Press Portal.
