What is fiction? Sudoku, games (role or video games), TV series, jokes, maths exercises and so on? It is not restricted to a classical literary object in terms of plays, novels or poetry. So what are fiction's works and experiments? What draws us to the world of fiction, and intrigues us? From self-fiction in literature to the use of reality in films, from fantasy to the logical, and from hyper-real TV series to their sometimes stereotyped heroes, this encounter explores the link between the fictional and the documentary. With Olivier Caïra (sociologist, EHESS)
