Dans la peau de Jacques Chirac is a 2006 award winning film by Karl Zero and Michel Royer. It has been produced by the same team which produced March of the Penguins.
It is a mockumentary which is a kind of unauthorized biography of Jacques Chirac, based on archival footage, and told at the first person (the voice of the French president is provided by imitator Didier Gustin). The main comic effect comes from the contradictions between the various speeches of the French President.
The title comes from the title of the French language version of Being John Malkovich.
