THE TEST OF A LIFETIME, MICHEL CATALANO AND THE KOUACHI BROTHERS

10 years later, the hostage tells his story

Synopsis

He was the last man to speak with the terrorists behind the Charlie Hebdo newspaper massacre.

On January 9, 2015, two days after the attack, they were being hunted down. By happenstance, their escape leads them to take refuge in Michel Catalano's print shop. The closed-door meeting between Catalano and the brothers Saïd and Chérif Kouachi will last an hour and a half before special forces storm in.

Michel Catalano thought he would die that day. He survived. His family was left with a broken husband and father.
