In a provincial suburb, three neighbours are overtaken by new technologies and social media. There's Marie, who could be about to lose the respect of her son because of a sex tape; Bertrand's daughter, a victim of online bullying; and Christine whose Uber ratings are refusing to take off. With the help of small-time crooks and a genuine hacker, they resolve to fight the mighty windmills of contemporary life: the Big Tech companies. Maybe their battle is screwed from the beginning - but you never know... (Métropole Films Distribution)

Benoît Delépine and Gustave Kervern have been making quirky films with their unique sense of humor for years, clearly influenced by the Finnish Kaurismäki brothers. This film is no exception. Here, they tackle characters grappling with the digital age — finding it absurd, bypassing it, or attempting to exploit it in all the wrong ways at all the wrong times. The series of unbelievable absurdities builds to a peak, making the whole experience so bizarre that it’s both fascinating and bewildering. However, having already found my way to their humor, I was thoroughly entertained. And I would watch it again.
