After studying political science, Julien Scussel decided to make a pivot in his career and dedicate himself to photography. Pursuing work in portraiture, photojournalism, fashion and advertising, he is driven by human adventures and artistically inspired by cinema and classical painting. Before moving to Paris, he traveled the world and often shot advertising and modeling-agency campaigns in the USA and South Africa. His photography is intimate, accurate and elegant, enabling him to work closely with celebrities and to collaborate with an array of artists, athletes and political figures around the world. Scussel has been following the Paris Saint-Germain team between Paris and Doha since 2016, immersing himself in the club’s daily life, from training sessions and family moments to key celebrations and legendary wins.

Author, screenwriter, scenarist and musician, David Foenkinos, who narrates the book, has been at the forefront of the French literary scene since the early 2000s. He has directed and contributed to an array of movies, such as Jalouse (2017) and I Feel Better (2018), and is the author of more than a dozen novels, including book-turned-movie Delicacy (2011) as well as Vers la beauté (2018) and Deux soeurs (2019).
