Problem creating file with awk

Hello,

I don't understand why the script below doesn't act the way it should :

Code:
#!/bin/sh
awk 'BEGIN{printf("Entrez la date : "); getline date < "-"}
$0 ~ date {f=1;print;next}
/^[0-9]{2}\//{f=0}
f' Planning.csv > planning.txt

It doesn't create file planning.txt with only the result of the awk command but with the entire file in input... ???

Do you know why ?
