Avril 2021, Olivier Dubois, correspondant au Mali pour le magazine Le Point et le quotidien Libération, est enlevé à Gao, dans le nord du Mali. Il passera 711 jours aux mains d'un groupe terroriste affilié à Al-Qaïda. Libéré en mars 2023, il brise aujourd'hui un an de silence et nous raconte comment, prisonnier dans l'une des régions les plus sensibles du monde, il a survécu à la seule force de son mental. En fuyant l'inactivité qui le ronge et consignant par écrit tout ce qu'il observe. Une façon pour lui de résister à l'effroi de savoir chaque jour sa vie menacée.
