ORIGINAL TITLE
Faits divers

An absorbing work of observation with a political bent, News Items finds Raymond Depardon embedding for three months with the gendarmes of the 5th arrondissement in Paris, tagging along with the cops as they go about their night shifts. All manner of humanity and events both quotidian and tragic pass by Depardon’s patient, curious gaze, and he renders a richly dimensional portrait of modern police work (and of the daily lives of police officers more generally), capturing happenings destined for the newspaper with a complexity of detail that only cinema can achieve.
