Film turns spotlight on Sarkozy
  • 12 years ago
Dominique Strauss-Kahn, the IMF chief, was widely expected to run in France's presidential elections next year.
 
But the sexual assault charges have effectively shattered those ambitions and boosted president Sarkozy's chances of re-election.
 
But Sarkozy's poll ratings remain low, and a new film about his life is unlikely to help.

Jonah Hull reports on "La Conquete", or "The Conquest", a less than flattering story of Sarkozy's lust and quest for power.
