Backstories: the photographer and the map
PARIS, April 20, 2015 - In Backstories, a new video series by Laurent Kalfala and Sylvain Estibal, AFP journalists take us behind the scenes of a powerful moment in their career.
For the first installment, Eric Feferberg tells the extraordinary story of this picture, taken on March 13, 2003, in a US military camp in Kuwait where 130,000 troops were preparing to invade Iraq. Invited to photograph this officers' briefing - and the top-secret map in the background - he had little idea of the storm that would ensue.
