The great voices of Unesco

While it had been stored for years in a cellar, the first microphone in Unesco's “one” room came out by chance. When a technician reconnects it to check if it works, the electric shock brings him out of his torpor and revives his conscience. Even more astonishing: he speaks! At the microphone of Gabriella, journalist at RFI, he tells us his story as a witness to History. The memories of the great voices which made his membrane vibrate then come back to him in memory. He remembers the personalities and speeches he captured in the past, and lets us listen to them. The Great Voices of Unesco is an original podcast that mixes fiction and reality. In 5 episodes, discover the women and men who marked the 20th century through their speeches at Unesco.
