Captif, souviens-toi de ton futur

Écrin Éditions · 11 May 2026 · 344 pages · ISBN 979-10-98525-50-6

In July 2021, a film crew vanished in Nigeria. David Benaym recounts his detention by the Nigerian secret services, a case that mobilised three embassies, American, French and Israeli. Journalist, Jewish, French, Israeli, gay and ill: each of his identities became a threat. A story of resilience that reads like a geopolitical thriller.
