FIRST VOTES

Young people are said to be apolitical, addicted to social media and easily influence. A caricatured vision that fails to reflect their reality and the real reasons for their disengagement from politics.

On the brink of the 2022 presidential election in France, First Votes sets out to meet those who will make the world of tomorrow. A generation disappointed by traditional politics but nonetheless determined to change things up.

Aged 18 to 25, these 15 first-time voters examine a new phenomenon that is currently reshaping the rules of democracy: the transformation of political communication in the digital age.
