In this episode of Série Series l'émission, Marie Barraco and Pierre Zéni welcome two guests committed to meaningful fiction: actress Nicole Ferroni and screenwriter David Elkaïm.
After several years as a science teacher, Nicole Ferroni turned to the world of show business, launching her one-woman show in 2010. A familiar face to TV viewers, who have followed her on shows such as On n'demande qu'à en rire, or seen her in the M6 series Peplvm, she has also imposed her voice on the radio, as a columnist on France Inter since 2013. Since 2019, she has played the role of Gaëlle Givors, a child psychiatrist at the Primevères clinic, in France.TV's refreshing Mental series Slash.
David Elkaïm is one of the screenwriters behind the success of French fiction. Interested in the serial format since his scriptwriting studies at FEMIS, he wrote several short films before becoming co-screenwriter for the Hénaut Président series, broadcast on Paris Première in 2007. In 2012, he took us into the intimacy of the church as co-screenwriter for the brilliant Ainsi Soient-Ils, broadcast on Arte. This year, he invited us onto the couch by co-writing En Thérapie (Arte), a hit whose 35 episodes have already been seen by over 41 million people.
On the show, Nicole Ferroni and David Elkaïm look back on their careers and the challenges that have marked them. They discuss the writer-actor relationship, and the importance of works and characters that reflect society.
