Director Nicolas Philibert spends 24 hours in Radio France to observe the studios, producers and presenters.

Mark Kermode

Observer (UK)

Behind it all lies the sense that here is something worth preserving, a celebration of radio's unique conversational appeal, a unifying force in times of splintered televisuality.

Rated: 4/5

Geoffrey Macnab

Independent (UK)

[Documentary maker Nicolas Philibert's] admiration for Radio France's work and public-service ethos is self-evident, but this is a very hard film for a non-French audience to engage with.

Rated: 2/5

Kate Muir

Times (UK)

Looking at La Maison de la Radio in the wake of the Charlie Hebdo crisis, what strikes you is how conventional and white French state radio seems.

In both its strengths and flaws, "La Maison de la radio" reveals a lot about the modern media.

HeyUGuys

There's a rhythm to Philibert's work, a tangible linearity - as he knows how to take every day life and illuminate it, find the subtleties, the nuances for us to appreciate and to resonate with.

Rated: 3/5

David Parkinson

Radio Times

Superb camerawork ably captures the energy of the diverse activities taking place within this distinctive circular building ... but it's the wonderful sound mix that best conveys the immediacy and intimacy that makes radio so unique.

Rated: 4/5

Excellent documentaire que le nouveau film de Nicolas Philibert. Il met en scene une plongee dans le quotidien de Radio France dans toutes ses composantes, des personnes qui font l'antenne au bruiteur son allant faire des prises de son dans les sous bois. Le seul defaut que je trouve est que dans son montage, le film ne nous raconte pas une histoire forte. Mais les sequences sont souvent passionantes et decryptent bien la somme de travail en amont de l'antenne. Un tres bel exercice de style que de faire un film sur la voix.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars
