Excess Will Save Us (2022) Movie Script
-Tell him that we're making a short film.
-Yeah.
-Hey!
-Hey!
How are you?
-Fine, and you?
-Fine.
-What are you doing?
-Your photo yesterday, my my my!
No but stop!
Ahmad, we're being filmed...
Wait,
because what you sent me was hot.
We're being filmed!
What do you mean?
Well it's like...
...my cousin
is making a film about our family.
So now, there's someone with us?
You can be normal
but don't say stuff like...
It's embarrassing.
Fuck...
Sorry, cousin!
Ok Dad.
I'm an inhabitant of Villereau.
A small village in the North of France.
What I will tell you now...
...maybe you won't believe me,
but it scares everybody.
On a Sunday morning,
a lady, an inhabitant...
...from this village...
...hears 'BANG! BANG! BANG!'
Surprise! She wakes up and thinks...
"It might be an attack!
There are terrorists!"
I knew the mayor when he was young
with his small bowl of milk.
He's the mayor
and I met him, he's totally stupid.
I was very impressed
by the efficient system.
In the first few minutes,
health services, firemen, police...
...all the state services
were committed really quickly.
There were around 30 cars
of ambulances, firemen and police.
40 to 50 people.
Within a few minutes, specialized teams
such as the PSIG Sabre...
...the platoon of surveillance
and intervention of the army...
...are sent to the scene.
These units are trained
to intervene in mass killings.
Suddenly, we hear
firefighters
coming with a lot of vehicles.
Rotating lights.
We were only seeing ambulances
and police cars passing by.
So...
...we tried to find out more about it
but the village was surrounded.
The gunshots were continuing,
never stopping!
There were screams all around the village!
They arrived, they said 'On the ground!'
I had to throw myself on the ground.
'Drop your weapon!'
But I had already dropped it
because I was on the ground.
"Drop your weapon!" he says.
I say "I dropped it, I'm on the ground!"
'What do you want me to do?'
'Drop your weapon!'
They frisked me and searched me,
they asked if I spoke Arabic,
I said "No, I don't speak Arabic!
How clever is that?"
Then they handcuffed me
and took me to the farm.
A hysterical woman
thought it was terrorists
but it was a pigeon hunt.
-But what happened?
-Nothing at all!
2 or 3 pigeons got killed!
The evening before,
a bunch of Polish people arrived.
And when she heard the Polish
with their... hmm...
Their language, they talk gibberish.
And they were having an argument...
Suddenly 'Bang!'
A gunshot.
Then a second gunshot!
She thought "That's it, someone walked by
and we are attacked by Terrorist & Co!"
She called the police!
Maybe Le Quesnoy's police, I don't know.
But she called.
When she spoke about terrorism,
everybody came!
"The lady who woke up at the beginning
was afraid...
...she made an emergency call telling us
that someone was shooting with a gun...
...and shouting Allah Abdel... Albar."
I'm in the house, alone,
and I hear noises,
I go upstairs, it's calm.
I go back down, I'm afraid.
And it happens again.
I hear voices too.
And going up the stairs...
I saw a revenant.
My heart was pounding.
She looked at me with a smile...
And she touched me,
I felt her on my shoulder.
And then... nothing.
She left.
Sometimes we meet strange people.
And it can happen anywhere.
They came to see what was happening,
but everything was as usual.
It made a big...
So terrorist attacks can happen anywhere.
It can happen even in Villereau.
That's it.
Hey Faustine,
is it you
who have a flirt with an Arab?
Don't talk about that.
He's not an Arab, he's Moroccan.
Do you know why Arabs
can't do crossword puzzles?
Because they don't like crosses!
Don't take it seriously, ok?
Anyway there are enough French people
in France. It's enough with the French.
In Villereau...
...there's no train station.
There's no shopping mall.
There's no cinema.
There's no swimming pool.
There's no pharmacy.
There's no hairdresser.
But, in Villereau...
...my family and my neighbors think
that terrorist attacks may happen.
Never seen such a world.
This, it goes here.
The war, the war, the war...
At 90 years old, doing games like that!
One by one!
I will not miss any of them!
Knocked out, they will move out!
Assholes, pieces of shit!
Outlaws!
Thieves! Bastards!
Garbage!
It's going to end bad.
Bastards....
Pieces of shit... Vagrants...
Thieves... Bastards...
I will shoot them.
I will not miss any of them.
They are real assholes.
Terrible! Terrible!
They will not get me.
They will not get me.
Bastards.
Bastards.
Bastards.
It's going to end bad.
I saw the fire at 10:40.
Right away, I ran.
I tried to save 2 tractors.
There were 3 in the barn.
And all the straw...
Hundreds of tons of straw and hay.
Nothing left.
I screamed for help.
Everything burned.
Only the house where I live was saved.
Did they find out how the fire started?
I think it's kids who...
It was kids, they played with matches
or marijuana and started the fire.
Someone put it on fire.
It was kids having fun
at a birthday party playing darts.
I think it was a sharecropper.
A sharecropper who used to work there.
We never really knew anyway.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY
There was a fire, at the farm.
So what did Eve do?
There were animals in the barn:
sheep, cows, pigs,...
She wanted to save the herd.
She wanted to unleash cows in the stables,
and she had synthetic pants...
This is a pot I bought...
In a flea market. In Armentires.
And it made me think of Eve because...
...she burnt.
I never knew
if it was her ashes that we put in...
...in the vault as there was so much...
They put what...
...was all around.
Fabrice didn't even want to see her,
before the funeral,
because it was too horrible.
In fact, now, Fabrice drinks.
He never got over it.
Never.
So you raised Faustine alone?
I raised my daughter.
I was already taking care of her anyway.
She wasn't always here.
-Yeah?
-Yeah, she was up hill and down dale.
-What do you mean?
-In any case, kids raise themselves!
Some people asked me "What happened to us
in 20 years to become so sad?"
I miss you baby!
-Me too!
-I wanna see you.
But I will come soon, for real.
-For real?
-Yeah, for real.
-Really?
-I will really try.
That's what you always say.
No but...
Now, I will really come.
It's just complicated with my dad...
But...
Yes, I know. Your dad...
He sucks a bit.
Not just a bit.
Just a bit much.
It's fine.
I will come soon.
I can come too.
Yes, but it's better if I come.
Because...
Voil.
You'll see if he comes.
If he comes, he cares about you.
If he doesn't, let him go.
Listen to this wise voice.
I'm the one who wants to go to Lille...
No! On the contrary! Don't go!
Why?
Why shouldn't I go?
You shouldn't go.
A boy should always be the one moving.
Nowadays we don't do this anymore.
Man proposes, woman disposes.
Nowadays it's dad
who takes you to the station!
Dad drives to Lille and waits in the car!
And I have to supply the condoms
while we're at it?
HIGH SCHOOL
-What were you doing?
-What?
I've been waiting for 10 minutes,
you're impossible!
It's not my fault, the math teacher
gave us back our exams.
-The math teacher?
-Yes.
-He holds you up to give back exams?
-I can't do anything about it.
You just think I'm a dumbass.
Are there ghosts in Villereau?
In Villereau, there's a lot of ghosts!
When you bike, you see pigeons.
When you drive, you see pigeons flying.
You turn back, you don't see them anymore.
We think 'Where did they go?'
No more pigeons!
Hunters, sometimes,
they do 'Bang! Bang! Bang!'
And then... nothing falls!
They wonder what's happening!
Nothing falls!
A shadow. They shot a shadow.
Unbelievable.
I've never seen that before.
There is a climate of fear.
Villereau is the Hitchcock
of the North of France.
It's...
It's really scary.
I tell you.
It's not reassuring.
-Since the attack...
-It's since then that you see them?
Yeah.
Like some sort of curse.
Don't start with this kind of words...
...it's fine.
A curse is something.
Maybe it has something to do with you?
What do I have to do with this?
You're the one who hunted them.
"It's me who hunted them". We all did.
You never killed any?
With the old one's rifle,
you never killed pigeons?
Maybe it's all your pigeons
coming to get their revenge.
I only saw them once or twice...
I feel like...
it only happens in our family.
It's not good for me!
-What?
-Don't say anything.
-I'm gonna do that!
-Well, do it! I look!
-It will not be enough!
-It's never enough.
And you, what will you do?
-Nothing!
-Nothing? As usual!
That's it! Nothing!
What are you doing?
I should have gone
to an agricultural school too.
You went 2 years at Corrine's
but your work was badly done.
What?
If it had been me,
it would have been better!
If it had been me... Oh dear.
I would've trained you.
-Is it OK?
-Yeah, it's OK.
Fuck, my knees.
You see dad...
She's not De Niro's daughter...
...or Tom Hanks' daughter.
-No?
-No, she wants to continue,
-I told her "Stop this career".
-Why?
"Anyway you will not succeed, you'll never
do something good in this area"
She'll eat money. That's for sure.
What the... she doesn't think.
She's really a kid.
She's really a child,
she doesn't think at all.
-Well, yeah!
-But look, what can I do?
Kids don't want to do anything anymore!
She wants to continue this job.
I will let her do it.
She'll never succeed.
Is that yours?
Show me.
-Show me!
-7...8...
...10...3.
Is that what you have?
Don't turn around
but I think the little fat one...
Don't turn around I tell you!
She keeps looking at you.
Well, can I look now?
Pretend you're looking at something else.
She smelled the... money.
Cheers.
-You don't recognize me?
-No.
I used to work at Deuet's.
Ah, Marie-Christine! Hello!
-You're good?
-Yes...
-Can I sit down?
-Yes, sit down!
What's up?
I live at my dad's now. In Villereau.
-Ah you came back to Villereau?
-In his house, yes.
-How long has it been?
-Three months.
Three months!
And you?
I'm still at my dad's, in Villereau.
Still with the grumpy old man!
-And Irne?
-Mom has passed away.
-I saw that you won!
-Yes!
3000 euros! Wow!
It's worth it!
You will have to teach me... how to play.
That's it, I just won a lot of money,
I don't work in the fields!
-What?
-I don't work anymore!
Are you kidding? And the beets to plant?
It's over,
I don't go in the fields anymore!
Your brothers already left!
You have to go in the fields!
There's work!
I'm gonna catch you!
I'm gonna catch you!
I got you!
I got you!
You won't have me!
Cool!
Why Nebraska?
I don't know, I saw the same one,
one day, on a website.
I'll put it here...
This I put...
Why are you using a mirror?
So I can see better.
I see how I'm framed, and the background.
I put this here sometimes.
because people don't know that I'm French.
And what's your favorite outfits
for Tik Tok?
Often, simple stuff
like crop tops or shorts.
I have to start the music...
Because it only lasts 15 seconds,
you have to be at the right moment
in the music when it starts.
And after...
...in general...
...I do it several times.
Often, I'm not in sync
with the music right away.
Wait, I'll do it again.
Shit...
Yes Fabrice,
at what time can I come to your place?
8 o'clock?
-The money! What did you do?
-There'll be others?
Did you win or lose?
-Will you answer?
-No no no, I don't work anymore...
-You don't work anymore?
-I win 3000 euros a day now!
-That's the cherry on the top!
-You had me enough for years.
Constantly gasing us in the bedroom!
That's true but I had to guide you!
-How are my lungs now?
-"Lungs"!
About the branches,
I wondered, it's surprising.
My my my..
He grabbed a ring
with a bar and a large stem.
-Hello you!
-Hello.
-How are you?
-Young man.
Well, he threw water on his head.
So? What's wrong, you're not well?
Bad news to tell you...
Well I don't know if it's bad...
What's happening now?
Marie-Christine's father.
-What?
-He passed.
He passed where?
He passed... on the other side.
-He's deceased?
-Yes.
-No way?
-You know what it means?
Well yeah!
You should start
with something soft, otherwise...
I don't know how to do, Fabrice.
You say uh...
You say... 'my love!'
'My love!'
'Do you want to love me always?'
Don't you have better?
How do I do... I stand up?
-No, you kneel.
-I kneel?
-Yeah, Romeo, in Juliet , he kneels.
-Romeo?
There's no door?
Patrick?
My darling,
With this declaration, I pop the question.
To be your husband, I'll be proud.
I'm on a cloud...
...as your father left for us
a nice inheritance.
My heart is the most sincere!
My heart is the most sincere...
...offering you this bouquet of beers.
It's beautiful!
Marie-Christine, will you marry me?
Coming back from the market...
Domino-minette
I met Toinette
Domino-mino Domino-minette
Nice ass and good looking
Domino-minette Domino-mino
I start by making her laugh, Domino
She says to me "You're a dirty beast"
Domino-minette Domino-mino
She puts her hand in my pants, Domino
Here I am harvesting
Domino-minette Domino-mino
I start to do her Doggy style, Domino
I throw three splashes on her, Domino
Here comes the choo choo train!
Come on girls!
Everybody has fun on the choo choo train!
I forgot to say
that my wife Irne died at 80...
2015...
In 2015.
Since then, I'm alone.
Sadly.
Especially in the evening.
What a pity.
What a thing.
You've been here
for three years now, my dear.
So tragic.
It's so strange that you're here.
You're not coming back, huh?
Vote for Bernard in the municipal
elections. "Everybody in Villereau!"
As a mayor, what would you do?
Me? I would radicalize!
How would you radicalize?
With Marine Le Pen?
With Marine
and the new upcoming one, Macron!
I like him! Macron is good.
Ok...
-I'm gonna talk.
-Come here closer to me, dad.
Ask your brother questions from here.
No, I was going to talk.
So I'm the future deputy mayor...
...of Bernard Petit,
who's up for the coming election,
I hope we're gonna win!
Because we're tired of...
He's been the mayor three times already
and nothing's moving!
Ah there's gonna be some change!
Right, Bernard?
Yes, yes.
-That's what I want to do.
-That's it, we want to change everything!
Most of all, lower...
what's it called... pension...
...in nursing homes.
Pay less for old people.
Hello, sir.
I stand for Villereau's elections.
Can I come in?
Yes, do what you want.
To do my election campaign,
I'm selling a tractor,
if you're interested.
To finance my campaign.
Yeah, well I'm gonna eat now.
-I stand for Villereau's elections.
-Yes, good.
To finance it, I sell my tractor.
Well done.
if things don't get done, it's sad.
-Well yeah.
-Go on, don't be scared, pet him.
Toby!
The terrorists
are one step ahead of the authority,
the enforcement services
or the elected officials.
You never know when they will attack
but the reactive system works.
And it has shown
the French system works well.
It's also everyone's role to be a citizen.
If you see abnormal things,
you must say it.
It's not an accusation.
If you see someone with a bag...
Ask questions without creating psychosis.
So you don't want to say
anything about Bernard?
No, I won't express my opinion
because the elections...
...me, today...
Pass!
Morgane! You're coming or not?
-What are you doing?
-I'm going to the station.
I'm gonna get busted,
are you coming or not? I'll go directly.
-You booked a train ticket?
-Yes.
Yesterday.
Oh, you've planned it all.
Well yeah, of course.
You're OK?
Nervous.
-Could you keep my bag?
-Yeah, yeah.
Take care of the cardoons
on the other side!
For God's sake!
I spilled the bucket!
-Come on, for real?
-Yes!
How did you pick it up?
If you let some, you need to pick it up!
I picked up most of it.
-No, it was full!
-So?
Liar, you didn't...
Where did you spill it?
The yard.
-It's not going well.
-What?
It's not ok.
For me it's not ok.
-And him, does he work well?
-Well, yeah. You see his work.
You see that you are not the number 1.
You see the difference?
And with this,
I can do little bits throughout the day.
Give that thing to him at some point,
so he'll work.
It's hard. It's sad you don't...
-He's the best then?
-Yes he is!
-He's the best!
-Yes, because I taught him early.
For you two, I didn't bother enough.
Don't go too much over there!
Don't go there too much!
At this time you're gonna start again?
You're already there!
You really see nothing!
You're really... Oh, God.
He's not nice, right? He's not nice!
He's not nice, Roger, he's not nice.
He's mean, very mean.
Very very mean.
Ok? You agree with me?
Right?
Sometimes, he doesn't let you lay eggs!
Ok? You agree?
Right, my chicken? My little chicken?
He's mean, the patriarch, right?
Very mean, little chicken!
Ah, you're so pretty...
You have nice eyes, you know?
Can I give you little kisses?
You're pretty!
Very pretty!
You lazy ass!
You lazy, will you wake up!
Wake up, you lazy!
Your mum tolerates all your vices!
She should never
have accepted all of this!
Never!
It's weird! You're taller!
-He has his high heels, that's why!
-You're taller when you sit!
Pull from the bottom. The other way!
-The other way?
-Obviously you start from the bottom!
-I'm being measured.
-How much?
1 meter 90.
It won't ever fit in.
1 meter 90 is huge.
As you'll have Mom...
How long is it? 1 meter 70 maximum?
And Pp?
He'll be like that, he won't fit in.
He was too stingy, he didn't get enough.
It will do like that.
Me... I'll be gone before.
-Yes, with your liver cirrhosis.
-So I'll be the first one.
And you? How will you fit?
It will block, you won't get in.
Look at that.
-There's even his name.
-A "P"! They booked it!
1 meter 70!
-Perfect!
-This is great!
-Impeccable!
-Well, here it is.
Oh! Well, Pp!
You're doing fine in there?
You want me to bring the chickens?
There was vandalism again.
-What happened again?
-I don't know.
I don't know.
-It's the dead one in there!
-Dead people eat the cables!
The dead one is awake!
-The dead one in the vault?
-Maybe.
-It still smells.
-What?
It still smells.
-It still smells?
-Yes. I think.
Yeah, it's maybe... wait.
So, what's this story?
Yeah, it smells!
It's the seal.
I think it comes from the seal, no?
No, the seal is well done?
-I don't understand.
-It's probably the flowers...
-Which flowers?
-Maybe the rotten flowers.
What? There's nothing on the grave!
On the grave there's nothing!
Rotten flowers from the trash.
I don't know. No?
We'll have to clarify this.
This is weird.
It's weird, weird, weird.
I say someone else is in here.
There's someone in there?
I think that the grave has been opened.
The vault is not bad so...
It's a bit like a 3-star hotel.
Here.
I'm an inhabitant of Villereau.
A small village in the North of France...
Here.
-It's the space bar, I think, you can...
-This one?
Is it working?
Or clic on the triangle thing.
Yes, it works.
He's in front of the farm.
But I'm horrible in this! It's horrible.
-What are you talking about?
-My face is horrible!
Nonsense!
But yes really, where will it be seen?
Maybe I shouldn't have worn those boots.
I should have worn shoes.
Who are you talking to?
No, he says
'If we were 2, it would be better!'
I get it.
-Yeah. I'm alone.
-When you're alone, you talk to yourself.
If we were 2, it would be better,
I wouldn't do that. You get it?
I don't know,
I think you're beautiful in the film so...
Well, not me. It's...
I didn't understand that...
And in most of the shots,
I don't wear make up or anything...
You say it's gonna be in festivals,
I don't want people on Tik Tok to...
even on Instagram,
that they... see it's me.
Can we stop the filming...
It's weird.
I need you.
-You cross and there, then forward.
-Forward.
-Then you jump.
-I jump.
-You turn.
-Turn.
Marie-Christine.
Then you jump.
Then do kicks.
Who's that? It's ringing!
Who is it?
I'll call back later, focus.
Yes, it's ringing! Nonstop.
It's ringing!
What?
It's bad?
And the choreography?

You will applaud me.

-Yes!
We are in it. You will watch us.
On a Sunday morning, a lady...
...an inhabitant from this village...
...hears 'BANG BANG BANG!'
Surprise! She wakes up and thinks...
Today was
the most beautiful day of my life.
It's really good.
After everything I saw...
And they laughed in the cinema.
-It's true, right?
-Yeah, everyone.
Honestly it was...
-It was good.
-It was great.
I even have tears in my eyes.
It was so beautiful.
Oh my darling!
Well, yeah...
-It's tough times.
-It was beautiful!
It was moving.
Are you happy?
-Yes.
-Yes.
Especially today.
-After everything we saw.
-You realize?
-It's too beautiful!
-Yes.
-It's a dream!
-Yes.
Incredible! She's here!
Have you seen Excess Will Save Us ?
Did you like Excess Will Save Us ?
-Which film?
- Excess will save us.
Everyone's coming out of the cinema
saying "it's great!"
"Top film! Big prize!"
First prize! Others, pff!
It's crazy, the success we have!
Everyone wants a picture with us!
I've never seen this!
And people recognize you
with'?Bang! Bang!'
Yes, of course,
when I do 'Bang Bang Bang!'
-Oh yeah.
-Of course everyone recognized me!
You recognized me sir? No?
I don't want to live here
in Villereau anymore.
You don't want to stay?
No... with the work I do
on the farm with dad...
...it's not fun.
I want to live in Clermont-Ferrand.
You want to go to Clermont-Ferrand?
Yeah. Because in Clermont-Ferrand,
there's the short film festival.
And now... now I'm a real star there!
The problem is the elections,
you're with Bernard!
-Ah yeah.
-Did you think about this?
Oh I want to go to Clermont!
Hello.
Voted.
Here's the president!
-How is it going?
-I hope you voted for me?
If we want to be in the shit,
we know who to vote for!
-ID card?
-So...
Silence in the booth, huh!
Yes.
All in the envelope.
Voted!
Like we say, when there's a crisis,
the fat ones get thin
and the skinny ones die.
Villereau's results. It's bad.
Last one of the list.
The first one is Emilien Briatte.
With 87% of the votes.
And him, he's last in line
with a 10% difference
with the second-last.
You did nothing good. Nothing!
-Nothing! And you don't care!
-Alas!
-You don't care!
-Next time!
-You don't care, here, look!
-Here it is!
Look, Bernard Petit... AaaAArrgggg!!
Put it off!
Here, Bernard Petit! My God!
What's that... what's that beast?
What's that thing?
Young wild boar.
-That's a big beast.
-Wild boar! Wild boar!
It's gonna catch you and come eat you.
Oh, fuck.
Fuck, we should have taken a rifle.
What a story.
What a mess.
What a tragedy.
What a mess.
One, two...
What is this?
What a tragedy.
And the beautiful white.
What a disaster!
A beautiful chicken...
Good morning.
What?
It's you?
You look angry.
-Why did you do that?
-What did I do?
-I don't remember, I don't know.
-Stop doing that.
-I didn't do bad stuff.
-I was there, so stop doing that.
Are you serious?
I did bad stuff?
What?
Hammer, chickens, do you remember?
The chickens! Hammer...
What, did I kill the chickens?
It's you.
I killed the chickens...
I didn't kill the chickens?
No, seriously?
I didn't kill the chickens.
I didn't kill the chickens.
I don't remember anything.
I don't remember anything.
Tell me.
Well, let's just say
it's Christian's dogs.
They're always messing up, pissing off
the beasts, eating I don't know what...
It won't be that much for them anyway...
Yes, hello madam...
is this L'Observateur de L'Avesnois ?
Yes. Hello.
This the Ramponneau farm, in Villereau.
My father had his chickens
attacked by stray dogs.
And he would like an article
in the newspaper.
So that...
at least the population would be warned.
So... he would like it.
Can you come quickly?
I found here about 10 chickens.
Stray dogs came in the yard...
You saw the dogs?
I saw two dogs, but they left.
A small black with straight ears,
and one with a white spot under its neck.
When they saw me, I was at the window,
I knocked on the glass,
and they left.
You know the dogs?
It's dogs who travel.
The farm next door, it's the same.
They also had a lot of chickens,
and they also lost them.
It made a fuss, he called the police.
They came and they say
'We have to find who did this!'
Who did this, the dogs.
-No, put it in there!
-What?
Put it in there!
You dip it.
Careful because it will be warm.
Stop, stop.
Let it fall!
Let it fall!
The last chicken!
The last one!
The work of the dogs!
I hope the dogs didn't have rabies.
We are at war.
Emmanuel Macron hammered it last night.
-I think I got it!
-We are at war.
He repeated it 6 times,
those words that we hoped
not to hear again, 75 years later.
It's a really weird war
that the President
commits us to lead with him.
A fight against an invisible enemy.
"The executive branch progressively
increased its powers last week...
...closing shops, schools...
...then bars, restaurants, shops."
They closed everything! Everything!
Oh fuck... no way!
The wedding is over!
You'll postpone it.
When will I do it?
When I am dead.
-What?
-When I am be dead!
Ah yeah! It would be cheaper!
Well yeah!
"Limit contacts!"
"From tonight I impose rules."
...the best rule is the one that,
as a citizen, you give to yourself.
It's closed... it's closed!
You see, it's closed!
-It's closed!
-Fuck!
We can't anymore.
It's because of coronavirus...
it's because of coronavirus.
Hey!
Ah no, it's not possible!
The virus is still spreading!
It's fine, I can put a...
Grandpa is 90...
I won't do anything,
I don't even have the virus!
-There is a risk of infection.
-What are you doing, I'm not gonna go...
-Go, I'm locking you in.
-Is that a joke? What are you doing?
-You can't go out.
-Uncle, hello?
-You can't go out!
-Open! What are you doing?
I came just to say hello
and you lock me in.
Well you shouldn't have come in.
-I can leave but don't lock me in.
-Should I call your dad?
-Why do you do that every time...
-Ah see?
-Nothing to "see", stop it.
-See, you're scared?
I'm not scared. He's not gonna
say anything. I just came to say hello!
I thought you knew your father well!
He's a lunatic!
Fuck...
Here, take my place!
-What?
-Come here!
What?
Come here, she wants to go out!
Stop, you'll make me fall!
Sit down!
I don't know...
She must stay locked in!
-Who?
-Faustine.
-Can't you open instead of...?
-She must stay in here.
-What?
-She must stay locked in!
-She will poison us!
-Well, yeah!
That's why I said she must get tested!
-Stop saying nonsense! Open!
-She must get tested, ok?
Are you sick, miss?
-Open to me!
-Stay at home!
It's not funny!
What?
It's not funny, open to me!
-But you'll have a test?
-Fuck...
If you're sick, the hospital isn't far!
But I'm not sick!
-Ah you're not sick?
-No!
So why are you locked in?
It's not me!
Ah it's not you?
But you know, if you're not sick,
there's a lot of people who think that,
but they're sick.
-Come on!
-Did you already see the doctor?
I don't have any doctor,
I don't need a doctor!
But you know,
doctors, they might be crazy!
They're all crazy!
When you'll be 92,
you won't think about the lockdown.
I don't wanna stay 90
years locked in there!
It will be the ground, and the coffin!
Dear Faustine,
It will probably take you years
to understand this letter,
but it's important for me
to at least leave you this.
Tomorrow, I will have left Villereau.
I can't stay here any longer,
I can't stay any longer with your father.
I live in an in-between
in which I mentally flee
from everything I experience.
I want to forget everything from here.
And I don't want to give your father
another reason to come after me.
I hope you won't make
the same mistakes I made.
Don't start building a life
in an environment
that isn't good for you
with someone who doesn't love you
the way you want to be loved.
Your dad didn't love me in the right way
but you are the apple of his eye so...
...I have no doubt
he will be there for you.
I love you. Your Mom, Eve
Sugar?
Sugar.
Hurry, hurry.
We need to go to the pastas right now!
They'll take everything, everything!
It's better to take big packages.
Hurry!
-Hurry!
-Wait. Wait, this, this!
Toilet paper?
It's enough!
It's enough! There's too much!
You'll use newspaper.
No, impossible!
If it doesn't work
with hydroalcoholic gel...
...we'll take bleach.
Yes!
Trump told us
to wash our lungs with bleach.
You'll fill it, this way!
Trump said we need bleach!
We need bleach!
Trump said it!
You're OK?
Nervous.
-Could you keep my bag?
-Yeah, yeah.
I go?
Hello.
-How are you?
-Fine, and you?
I don't know...
Who's that?
-It's my cousin.
-Really?
She's gonna follow us...?
-I told you she was making a movie.
-Yeah. Yeah.
She's gonna follow us all day?
Well, at some moments.
Unless you don't want to?
No, no, it's just to know.
-Sure?
-Yeah.
Smell this. Go ahead, smell.
What is it?
Stop, you're stupid!
It smells clay.
You drink water in it, it tastes better.
More natural.
So cool.
And... here!
No?
Yes. All Coucous.
-Did you do it?
-Yeah.
It's like, people can order on it?
Yes, people can order on it, go there,
take what they want...
You even have little bonuses, like gifts.
It makes the customers come back.
What are you doing with the camera?
I make a film about our family.
My father is getting married...
Ok. Like a making of for the wedding?
A vlog?
It's not a vlog!
It's fine!
It's not the same!
Your uncle wants to be...
-Youtuber?
-A star!
-Nonsense.
-I'm gonna do something, I'm coming back.
Do you think your relationship evolved?
Well, yeah.
It's always... We were really close but...
Meeting in real life...
we talked about things
we didn't talk about on Facetime
or stuff like this.
So, yeah, for sure.
But why don't you want him
to come to my dad's wedding?
I don't know. I mean,
I don't want him to meet people here...
I showed them pictures,
talked a bit about him and...
they're pissing me off...
I don't really want them to meet him.
They'll be mean and everything...
Ah you can read on both sides.
Come on, go away.
Go do the things you can do.
Like blowing up balloons.
Let's go!
-Careful, let's go!
-Do it!
Focus!
You're already too late!
-Ah, well then.
-With the music, you'll never manage.
Let's go!
Pictures. Pictures!
You won't wear that for the dance...
We will! Yes!
No but...
Yes! Look!
"I met her at 16, we were all innocents!"
"We met again in the prairie..."
Come on, Fidel Castro.
Well yeah, no but... wait...
No no no but...
Now you just have to not...
when we're doing the scene,
you have to be in the scene and not...
Yes but if I can't do it, I can't.
What?
If I can't do the choreography well,
don't tell me "It's not like that".
But it's part of the scene!
If you can't do it well, it's part
of the scene as we're rehearsing.
Ah ok, ok.
That's why I told you,
if you make mistakes in the choreography,
we don't care, no one cares.
If you're doing mistakes.
It's because I make comments?
Yes, it's about the comments,
stuff like "I don't want
to do it tomorrow for the wedding"
We can't put that in the film,
we can't use it.
A needle in a haystack.
The gold is here.
I keep fumbling, but nothing's coming.
-Hello Fabrice.
-How are you?
-Fine
-What are you doing here?
I would like you to sign
the petition for Roger.
What did he do?
Christian's dog
killed all of his chickens.
-Really? I didn't know.
-I'm afraid of the dog. My God.
We're gonna need to kill the dog.
-Really?
-Well, yeah.
He's probably protected
by people in high places,
like Dupont-Moretti.
Anyway, this dog needs to be killed,
or Christian goes to court.
Isn't it better to put the dog to sleep?
To go see Christian? Talk with him?
We can't put up with this!
I don't want
to have any trouble with justice...
...for things like dogs,
Christian and stuff...
Yeah but you need to sign!
Everyone signed!
They asked where the dog came from.
Probably from the farm behind.
But it's really their dog!
So someone is supporting them. They are...
I heard that they're untouchable.
I didn't know who to call
but my father just left with a rifle,
and I don't know where he's going.
He was extremely angry
and I don't know where he went.
Did he touch you?
No, he just left with the rifle,
but I don't know what to do.
Fuck, I think he's at Christian's.
Why at Christian's?
I think he's gonna kill their dog.
Why would he go
in the middle of the night?
They say it's not their dogs.
The mayor, the deputy mayor,
everyone signed.
So what can I do?
Now I bought new ones.
They're doing fine.
It's worth it.
My dark thoughts are gone.
Now I hope that...
I put grids everywhere.
Everything is surrounded.
I hope they won't come.
Until next time.
First, I'm happy
to welcome you in Villereau.
Especially our elder, Roger.
-Can you hear me, Roger?
-Yeah yeah.
For me it's a lot of memories,
when I was a kid.
I used to go and get milk. At the farm.
More than once,
I fell down with the can of milk.
So, Patrick. Go ahead.
Go ahead, take your ring.
To Marie-Christine.
No, I take yours.
In the name of the law, I declare
Patrick Petit and Marie-Christine Carlier
united in marriage.
Kiss.
Quiet !
Silence!
In the bookshop, I saw you
In the prairie, I lost you
We were only sixteen
We were only children
And then we met again
We were two lovebirds
Marie-Christine
I love you like crazy
You drive me crazy everyday
And I hope, like the mayor said
That we'll have nine children
Honestly, from day to day, I love you
I love you like crazy
It's crazy, the love I have for you
It's true
Really crazy, you drive me crazy, crazy!
Hey, you, get the hell out of here!
Get out of here!
-Did we invite you?
-Calm down!
-Do you see any Arabs here?
-Leave him alone!
-Are you crazy?
-Get out!
Your dad's crazy!
-Don't touch me!
-Leave him!
-You psycho!
-Sure, go home!
Fucking leave him!
-Go find your cousins, motorbike thieves!
-You psycho!
-Leave him, stop that!
-Fascist!
Stop! Do you have to be like that?
I'm sick of you!
Do you think Patrick is happy
to see wogs at his wedding?
-Do you think about the family?
-Why would you give a shit?
Fuck.
Hi, this is Ahmad.
I am unavailable at the moment. Leave...
Hi, this is Ahmad.
I am unavailable at the moment.
Leave a message after the beep.
I'll never see you again.
But I'll meet you soon.
We'll be next to each other.
In a wooden box.
You're a skeleton now.
I cry.
My darling.
I can't believe that you left.
I don't understand.
You left too soon.
They wouldn't let me come in.
I didn't even see you die.
Your body, your thighs so warm.
If you were here,
we would be in each others arms.
Despite our old age.
Oh Patrick!
What?
I come back from father's.
What's this vault's story?
The vault? He offered me
to get buried with Marie-Christine...
-He offered it with your wife?
-Yes.
You didn't ask
to put your wife instead of us?
But it's normal, it's my wife!
It's normal that she takes our place?
In the vault next to my mother, and yours?
Don't you think that I'd like to be
in the family vault too?
Anyway I don't care,
I'm going to Clermont-Ferrand!
-What do you mean, Clermont-Ferrand?
-Yes I'm going to Clermont-Ferrand,
because I'm a star there,
in Clermont-Ferrand!
A movie star, now!
A movie star
because you did the TV with your daughter?
Yes! Exactly!
You think you're a star?
Because people remember seing you on TV?
It will last 15 days
and then it will be over!
Maybe the newsagent
will remember and that's all!
Who do you think you are there?
And you, who do you think you are?
-With your Belgian accent.
-My Belgian accent?
It's not because you studied
in the Farming Technical Institute...
Oh so, that's it!
As soon as someone tries
to help themselves, they get belittled!
I should talk like you to be from here!
You should change your mindset.
If you get to Clermont-Ferrand
with this bumpkin jacket,
you think they'll make you sign selfies?
-Nonsense!
-Did you think about the others?
Your friend Bernard,
that you're letting down!
Don't you think
he needs you here too, Bernard?
You know nothing!
You know nothing!
You, the others, you don't care!
I don't even wanna talk anymore!
I'm leaving!
It's not over! Stay here!
Bastard!
Let me go!
Let me go! Let me go!
Let me go!
Let me go!
Let me go!
Anyway, I know everything!
What do you know, now?
I read the letters!
-What letters?
-And I know you read them too.
Why did you hide them, huh?
It's kids, they played with matches
or marijuana, and they started the fire.
Pp is convinced it's kids next door,
but I'm not sure it's them.
We never really knew anyway.
And you, where were you during the fire?
I wasn't there.
Me, they called me and when I came back,
the house was already on fire.
I was away at this moment, I wasn't here.
I'm sorry to talk about it,
because there was your wife, but...
That's why I rather not talk about it,
because I wasn't there.
Help me, instead of dreaming!
Come on!
Come, we unpack.
-A kiss!
-My little heart!
My darling!
Did some people
recognize you when you arrived?
Yes, yes, yes. Everywhere,
people were running towards me.
Yes!
It was crazy!
Some even gave me little kisses...
Really, you!
So, you see, Dad? Excess Will Save Us!
Even here they saw it!
You thought I was a bumpkin!
So Mr. Bel, what did you think of me?
Well, you were great! I really liked it.
-I'm very happy!
-I really liked this short film,
really, I was captivated.
My little darling...
-You're beautiful.
-I'm beautiful?
-You're beautiful too.
-I'm beautiful?
-Are you happy?
-Yes!
-And you?
-Me too!
I brought all my rifles.
If it goes wrong,
I kill someone in the neighbourhood.
It's like Villereau after all?
-Yeah.
-Yeah.
It's thanks to Marie-Christine's dad...
...that now, I'm rich.
Thanks to him!
Yes.
I can thank him.
You put it... here. Like that.
With a hand here.
Like this, and you can push it.
Then you turn it like that.
I was accepted anyway but...
the entrance exam was at home.
They called by video conference.
They accepted me but...
I talked about it with my dad and...
...he said no.
So now I work at the bakery.
And I will try to save money,
so maybe next year,
I could go to the school.
And how is it going with Ahmad?
Actually, after the wedding,
we never... talked again.
I tried to...
...text him and everything
but he never...
He never answered.
So...
It's not true.
Il's not true.
It's not real.
It's not a documentary.
It's not a documentary,
it's not a documentary,
it's not a documentary.
It's not real.
It's neither a fiction, nor a documentary.
It's not the reality.
We live in a weird world.
So...
This, it's to make noise!
Ah these bastards!
And everyday, it's the same session.
Oh shit, I forgot my stick.
You're here?
So I have time to take the rifle!
Yeah for sure!
Everyone tells me to come to the farm
when the party arrives.
I laugh,
I eat,
I am served port wine.
My father doesn't say no.
Tomorrow, I'll already be there
when the party arrives.
I'll laugh,
I'll eat,
I'll have the glass of port.
No one will dare tell me
to "stay longer".
And then,
they will see how beautiful I am.
And will be ashamed.
-Yeah.
-Hey!
-Hey!
How are you?
-Fine, and you?
-Fine.
-What are you doing?
-Your photo yesterday, my my my!
No but stop!
Ahmad, we're being filmed...
Wait,
because what you sent me was hot.
We're being filmed!
What do you mean?
Well it's like...
...my cousin
is making a film about our family.
So now, there's someone with us?
You can be normal
but don't say stuff like...
It's embarrassing.
Fuck...
Sorry, cousin!
Ok Dad.
I'm an inhabitant of Villereau.
A small village in the North of France.
What I will tell you now...
...maybe you won't believe me,
but it scares everybody.
On a Sunday morning,
a lady, an inhabitant...
...from this village...
...hears 'BANG! BANG! BANG!'
Surprise! She wakes up and thinks...
"It might be an attack!
There are terrorists!"
I knew the mayor when he was young
with his small bowl of milk.
He's the mayor
and I met him, he's totally stupid.
I was very impressed
by the efficient system.
In the first few minutes,
health services, firemen, police...
...all the state services
were committed really quickly.
There were around 30 cars
of ambulances, firemen and police.
40 to 50 people.
Within a few minutes, specialized teams
such as the PSIG Sabre...
...the platoon of surveillance
and intervention of the army...
...are sent to the scene.
These units are trained
to intervene in mass killings.
Suddenly, we hear
firefighters
coming with a lot of vehicles.
Rotating lights.
We were only seeing ambulances
and police cars passing by.
So...
...we tried to find out more about it
but the village was surrounded.
The gunshots were continuing,
never stopping!
There were screams all around the village!
They arrived, they said 'On the ground!'
I had to throw myself on the ground.
'Drop your weapon!'
But I had already dropped it
because I was on the ground.
"Drop your weapon!" he says.
I say "I dropped it, I'm on the ground!"
'What do you want me to do?'
'Drop your weapon!'
They frisked me and searched me,
they asked if I spoke Arabic,
I said "No, I don't speak Arabic!
How clever is that?"
Then they handcuffed me
and took me to the farm.
A hysterical woman
thought it was terrorists
but it was a pigeon hunt.
-But what happened?
-Nothing at all!
2 or 3 pigeons got killed!
The evening before,
a bunch of Polish people arrived.
And when she heard the Polish
with their... hmm...
Their language, they talk gibberish.
And they were having an argument...
Suddenly 'Bang!'
A gunshot.
Then a second gunshot!
She thought "That's it, someone walked by
and we are attacked by Terrorist & Co!"
She called the police!
Maybe Le Quesnoy's police, I don't know.
But she called.
When she spoke about terrorism,
everybody came!
"The lady who woke up at the beginning
was afraid...
...she made an emergency call telling us
that someone was shooting with a gun...
...and shouting Allah Abdel... Albar."
I'm in the house, alone,
and I hear noises,
I go upstairs, it's calm.
I go back down, I'm afraid.
And it happens again.
I hear voices too.
And going up the stairs...
I saw a revenant.
My heart was pounding.
She looked at me with a smile...
And she touched me,
I felt her on my shoulder.
And then... nothing.
She left.
Sometimes we meet strange people.
And it can happen anywhere.
They came to see what was happening,
but everything was as usual.
It made a big...
So terrorist attacks can happen anywhere.
It can happen even in Villereau.
That's it.
Hey Faustine,
is it you
who have a flirt with an Arab?
Don't talk about that.
He's not an Arab, he's Moroccan.
Do you know why Arabs
can't do crossword puzzles?
Because they don't like crosses!
Don't take it seriously, ok?
Anyway there are enough French people
in France. It's enough with the French.
In Villereau...
...there's no train station.
There's no shopping mall.
There's no cinema.
There's no swimming pool.
There's no pharmacy.
There's no hairdresser.
But, in Villereau...
...my family and my neighbors think
that terrorist attacks may happen.
Never seen such a world.
This, it goes here.
The war, the war, the war...
At 90 years old, doing games like that!
One by one!
I will not miss any of them!
Knocked out, they will move out!
Assholes, pieces of shit!
Outlaws!
Thieves! Bastards!
Garbage!
It's going to end bad.
Bastards....
Pieces of shit... Vagrants...
Thieves... Bastards...
I will shoot them.
I will not miss any of them.
They are real assholes.
Terrible! Terrible!
They will not get me.
They will not get me.
Bastards.
Bastards.
Bastards.
It's going to end bad.
I saw the fire at 10:40.
Right away, I ran.
I tried to save 2 tractors.
There were 3 in the barn.
And all the straw...
Hundreds of tons of straw and hay.
Nothing left.
I screamed for help.
Everything burned.
Only the house where I live was saved.
Did they find out how the fire started?
I think it's kids who...
It was kids, they played with matches
or marijuana and started the fire.
Someone put it on fire.
It was kids having fun
at a birthday party playing darts.
I think it was a sharecropper.
A sharecropper who used to work there.
We never really knew anyway.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY
There was a fire, at the farm.
So what did Eve do?
There were animals in the barn:
sheep, cows, pigs,...
She wanted to save the herd.
She wanted to unleash cows in the stables,
and she had synthetic pants...
This is a pot I bought...
In a flea market. In Armentires.
And it made me think of Eve because...
...she burnt.
I never knew
if it was her ashes that we put in...
...in the vault as there was so much...
They put what...
...was all around.
Fabrice didn't even want to see her,
before the funeral,
because it was too horrible.
In fact, now, Fabrice drinks.
He never got over it.
Never.
So you raised Faustine alone?
I raised my daughter.
I was already taking care of her anyway.
She wasn't always here.
-Yeah?
-Yeah, she was up hill and down dale.
-What do you mean?
-In any case, kids raise themselves!
Some people asked me "What happened to us
in 20 years to become so sad?"
I miss you baby!
-Me too!
-I wanna see you.
But I will come soon, for real.
-For real?
-Yeah, for real.
-Really?
-I will really try.
That's what you always say.
No but...
Now, I will really come.
It's just complicated with my dad...
But...
Yes, I know. Your dad...
He sucks a bit.
Not just a bit.
Just a bit much.
It's fine.
I will come soon.
I can come too.
Yes, but it's better if I come.
Because...
Voil.
You'll see if he comes.
If he comes, he cares about you.
If he doesn't, let him go.
Listen to this wise voice.
I'm the one who wants to go to Lille...
No! On the contrary! Don't go!
Why?
Why shouldn't I go?
You shouldn't go.
A boy should always be the one moving.
Nowadays we don't do this anymore.
Man proposes, woman disposes.
Nowadays it's dad
who takes you to the station!
Dad drives to Lille and waits in the car!
And I have to supply the condoms
while we're at it?
HIGH SCHOOL
-What were you doing?
-What?
I've been waiting for 10 minutes,
you're impossible!
It's not my fault, the math teacher
gave us back our exams.
-The math teacher?
-Yes.
-He holds you up to give back exams?
-I can't do anything about it.
You just think I'm a dumbass.
Are there ghosts in Villereau?
In Villereau, there's a lot of ghosts!
When you bike, you see pigeons.
When you drive, you see pigeons flying.
You turn back, you don't see them anymore.
We think 'Where did they go?'
No more pigeons!
Hunters, sometimes,
they do 'Bang! Bang! Bang!'
And then... nothing falls!
They wonder what's happening!
Nothing falls!
A shadow. They shot a shadow.
Unbelievable.
I've never seen that before.
There is a climate of fear.
Villereau is the Hitchcock
of the North of France.
It's...
It's really scary.
I tell you.
It's not reassuring.
-Since the attack...
-It's since then that you see them?
Yeah.
Like some sort of curse.
Don't start with this kind of words...
...it's fine.
A curse is something.
Maybe it has something to do with you?
What do I have to do with this?
You're the one who hunted them.
"It's me who hunted them". We all did.
You never killed any?
With the old one's rifle,
you never killed pigeons?
Maybe it's all your pigeons
coming to get their revenge.
I only saw them once or twice...
I feel like...
it only happens in our family.
It's not good for me!
-What?
-Don't say anything.
-I'm gonna do that!
-Well, do it! I look!
-It will not be enough!
-It's never enough.
And you, what will you do?
-Nothing!
-Nothing? As usual!
That's it! Nothing!
What are you doing?
I should have gone
to an agricultural school too.
You went 2 years at Corrine's
but your work was badly done.
What?
If it had been me,
it would have been better!
If it had been me... Oh dear.
I would've trained you.
-Is it OK?
-Yeah, it's OK.
Fuck, my knees.
You see dad...
She's not De Niro's daughter...
...or Tom Hanks' daughter.
-No?
-No, she wants to continue,
-I told her "Stop this career".
-Why?
"Anyway you will not succeed, you'll never
do something good in this area"
She'll eat money. That's for sure.
What the... she doesn't think.
She's really a kid.
She's really a child,
she doesn't think at all.
-Well, yeah!
-But look, what can I do?
Kids don't want to do anything anymore!
She wants to continue this job.
I will let her do it.
She'll never succeed.
Is that yours?
Show me.
-Show me!
-7...8...
...10...3.
Is that what you have?
Don't turn around
but I think the little fat one...
Don't turn around I tell you!
She keeps looking at you.
Well, can I look now?
Pretend you're looking at something else.
She smelled the... money.
Cheers.
-You don't recognize me?
-No.
I used to work at Deuet's.
Ah, Marie-Christine! Hello!
-You're good?
-Yes...
-Can I sit down?
-Yes, sit down!
What's up?
I live at my dad's now. In Villereau.
-Ah you came back to Villereau?
-In his house, yes.
-How long has it been?
-Three months.
Three months!
And you?
I'm still at my dad's, in Villereau.
Still with the grumpy old man!
-And Irne?
-Mom has passed away.
-I saw that you won!
-Yes!
3000 euros! Wow!
It's worth it!
You will have to teach me... how to play.
That's it, I just won a lot of money,
I don't work in the fields!
-What?
-I don't work anymore!
Are you kidding? And the beets to plant?
It's over,
I don't go in the fields anymore!
Your brothers already left!
You have to go in the fields!
There's work!
I'm gonna catch you!
I'm gonna catch you!
I got you!
I got you!
You won't have me!
Cool!
Why Nebraska?
I don't know, I saw the same one,
one day, on a website.
I'll put it here...
This I put...
Why are you using a mirror?
So I can see better.
I see how I'm framed, and the background.
I put this here sometimes.
because people don't know that I'm French.
And what's your favorite outfits
for Tik Tok?
Often, simple stuff
like crop tops or shorts.
I have to start the music...
Because it only lasts 15 seconds,
you have to be at the right moment
in the music when it starts.
And after...
...in general...
...I do it several times.
Often, I'm not in sync
with the music right away.
Wait, I'll do it again.
Shit...
Yes Fabrice,
at what time can I come to your place?
8 o'clock?
-The money! What did you do?
-There'll be others?
Did you win or lose?
-Will you answer?
-No no no, I don't work anymore...
-You don't work anymore?
-I win 3000 euros a day now!
-That's the cherry on the top!
-You had me enough for years.
Constantly gasing us in the bedroom!
That's true but I had to guide you!
-How are my lungs now?
-"Lungs"!
About the branches,
I wondered, it's surprising.
My my my..
He grabbed a ring
with a bar and a large stem.
-Hello you!
-Hello.
-How are you?
-Young man.
Well, he threw water on his head.
So? What's wrong, you're not well?
Bad news to tell you...
Well I don't know if it's bad...
What's happening now?
Marie-Christine's father.
-What?
-He passed.
He passed where?
He passed... on the other side.
-He's deceased?
-Yes.
-No way?
-You know what it means?
Well yeah!
You should start
with something soft, otherwise...
I don't know how to do, Fabrice.
You say uh...
You say... 'my love!'
'My love!'
'Do you want to love me always?'
Don't you have better?
How do I do... I stand up?
-No, you kneel.
-I kneel?
-Yeah, Romeo, in Juliet , he kneels.
-Romeo?
There's no door?
Patrick?
My darling,
With this declaration, I pop the question.
To be your husband, I'll be proud.
I'm on a cloud...
...as your father left for us
a nice inheritance.
My heart is the most sincere!
My heart is the most sincere...
...offering you this bouquet of beers.
It's beautiful!
Marie-Christine, will you marry me?
Coming back from the market...
Domino-minette
I met Toinette
Domino-mino Domino-minette
Nice ass and good looking
Domino-minette Domino-mino
I start by making her laugh, Domino
She says to me "You're a dirty beast"
Domino-minette Domino-mino
She puts her hand in my pants, Domino
Here I am harvesting
Domino-minette Domino-mino
I start to do her Doggy style, Domino
I throw three splashes on her, Domino
Here comes the choo choo train!
Come on girls!
Everybody has fun on the choo choo train!
I forgot to say
that my wife Irne died at 80...
2015...
In 2015.
Since then, I'm alone.
Sadly.
Especially in the evening.
What a pity.
What a thing.
You've been here
for three years now, my dear.
So tragic.
It's so strange that you're here.
You're not coming back, huh?
Vote for Bernard in the municipal
elections. "Everybody in Villereau!"
As a mayor, what would you do?
Me? I would radicalize!
How would you radicalize?
With Marine Le Pen?
With Marine
and the new upcoming one, Macron!
I like him! Macron is good.
Ok...
-I'm gonna talk.
-Come here closer to me, dad.
Ask your brother questions from here.
No, I was going to talk.
So I'm the future deputy mayor...
...of Bernard Petit,
who's up for the coming election,
I hope we're gonna win!
Because we're tired of...
He's been the mayor three times already
and nothing's moving!
Ah there's gonna be some change!
Right, Bernard?
Yes, yes.
-That's what I want to do.
-That's it, we want to change everything!
Most of all, lower...
what's it called... pension...
...in nursing homes.
Pay less for old people.
Hello, sir.
I stand for Villereau's elections.
Can I come in?
Yes, do what you want.
To do my election campaign,
I'm selling a tractor,
if you're interested.
To finance my campaign.
Yeah, well I'm gonna eat now.
-I stand for Villereau's elections.
-Yes, good.
To finance it, I sell my tractor.
Well done.
if things don't get done, it's sad.
-Well yeah.
-Go on, don't be scared, pet him.
Toby!
The terrorists
are one step ahead of the authority,
the enforcement services
or the elected officials.
You never know when they will attack
but the reactive system works.
And it has shown
the French system works well.
It's also everyone's role to be a citizen.
If you see abnormal things,
you must say it.
It's not an accusation.
If you see someone with a bag...
Ask questions without creating psychosis.
So you don't want to say
anything about Bernard?
No, I won't express my opinion
because the elections...
...me, today...
Pass!
Morgane! You're coming or not?
-What are you doing?
-I'm going to the station.
I'm gonna get busted,
are you coming or not? I'll go directly.
-You booked a train ticket?
-Yes.
Yesterday.
Oh, you've planned it all.
Well yeah, of course.
You're OK?
Nervous.
-Could you keep my bag?
-Yeah, yeah.
Take care of the cardoons
on the other side!
For God's sake!
I spilled the bucket!
-Come on, for real?
-Yes!
How did you pick it up?
If you let some, you need to pick it up!
I picked up most of it.
-No, it was full!
-So?
Liar, you didn't...
Where did you spill it?
The yard.
-It's not going well.
-What?
It's not ok.
For me it's not ok.
-And him, does he work well?
-Well, yeah. You see his work.
You see that you are not the number 1.
You see the difference?
And with this,
I can do little bits throughout the day.
Give that thing to him at some point,
so he'll work.
It's hard. It's sad you don't...
-He's the best then?
-Yes he is!
-He's the best!
-Yes, because I taught him early.
For you two, I didn't bother enough.
Don't go too much over there!
Don't go there too much!
At this time you're gonna start again?
You're already there!
You really see nothing!
You're really... Oh, God.
He's not nice, right? He's not nice!
He's not nice, Roger, he's not nice.
He's mean, very mean.
Very very mean.
Ok? You agree with me?
Right?
Sometimes, he doesn't let you lay eggs!
Ok? You agree?
Right, my chicken? My little chicken?
He's mean, the patriarch, right?
Very mean, little chicken!
Ah, you're so pretty...
You have nice eyes, you know?
Can I give you little kisses?
You're pretty!
Very pretty!
You lazy ass!
You lazy, will you wake up!
Wake up, you lazy!
Your mum tolerates all your vices!
She should never
have accepted all of this!
Never!
It's weird! You're taller!
-He has his high heels, that's why!
-You're taller when you sit!
Pull from the bottom. The other way!
-The other way?
-Obviously you start from the bottom!
-I'm being measured.
-How much?
1 meter 90.
It won't ever fit in.
1 meter 90 is huge.
As you'll have Mom...
How long is it? 1 meter 70 maximum?
And Pp?
He'll be like that, he won't fit in.
He was too stingy, he didn't get enough.
It will do like that.
Me... I'll be gone before.
-Yes, with your liver cirrhosis.
-So I'll be the first one.
And you? How will you fit?
It will block, you won't get in.
Look at that.
-There's even his name.
-A "P"! They booked it!
1 meter 70!
-Perfect!
-This is great!
-Impeccable!
-Well, here it is.
Oh! Well, Pp!
You're doing fine in there?
You want me to bring the chickens?
There was vandalism again.
-What happened again?
-I don't know.
I don't know.
-It's the dead one in there!
-Dead people eat the cables!
The dead one is awake!
-The dead one in the vault?
-Maybe.
-It still smells.
-What?
It still smells.
-It still smells?
-Yes. I think.
Yeah, it's maybe... wait.
So, what's this story?
Yeah, it smells!
It's the seal.
I think it comes from the seal, no?
No, the seal is well done?
-I don't understand.
-It's probably the flowers...
-Which flowers?
-Maybe the rotten flowers.
What? There's nothing on the grave!
On the grave there's nothing!
Rotten flowers from the trash.
I don't know. No?
We'll have to clarify this.
This is weird.
It's weird, weird, weird.
I say someone else is in here.
There's someone in there?
I think that the grave has been opened.
The vault is not bad so...
It's a bit like a 3-star hotel.
Here.
I'm an inhabitant of Villereau.
A small village in the North of France...
Here.
-It's the space bar, I think, you can...
-This one?
Is it working?
Or clic on the triangle thing.
Yes, it works.
He's in front of the farm.
But I'm horrible in this! It's horrible.
-What are you talking about?
-My face is horrible!
Nonsense!
But yes really, where will it be seen?
Maybe I shouldn't have worn those boots.
I should have worn shoes.
Who are you talking to?
No, he says
'If we were 2, it would be better!'
I get it.
-Yeah. I'm alone.
-When you're alone, you talk to yourself.
If we were 2, it would be better,
I wouldn't do that. You get it?
I don't know,
I think you're beautiful in the film so...
Well, not me. It's...
I didn't understand that...
And in most of the shots,
I don't wear make up or anything...
You say it's gonna be in festivals,
I don't want people on Tik Tok to...
even on Instagram,
that they... see it's me.
Can we stop the filming...
It's weird.
I need you.
-You cross and there, then forward.
-Forward.
-Then you jump.
-I jump.
-You turn.
-Turn.
Marie-Christine.
Then you jump.
Then do kicks.
Who's that? It's ringing!
Who is it?
I'll call back later, focus.
Yes, it's ringing! Nonstop.
It's ringing!
What?
It's bad?
And the choreography?
Excess Will Save Us has been selected.
In Clermont-Ferrand,
biggest festival in the world!
What?
Excess Will Save us
has been selected in Clermont-Ferrand...
...the biggest festival in the world!
What?
Excess Will Save us
has been selected in Clermont-Ferrand...
...the biggest short film festival
in the world!
Here!
Finally! We've arrived!
No, shit, we can't park here.
Not possible...
Some are taking two places!
Do you see this?
Yeah! So much people!
Did you watch Excess Will Save Us ?
I'm in it!
Did you see? I'm on the first page!
You should see it!
What will you give to us?
So, what do you give?
Selfies if you want!
-Selfies!
-We're doing selfies!
Hey I'm in the film.
You will applaud me.
-Oh yes?
-Yes!
We are in it. You will watch us.
On a Sunday morning, a lady...
...an inhabitant from this village...
...hears 'BANG BANG BANG!'
Surprise! She wakes up and thinks...
Today was
the most beautiful day of my life.
It's really good.
After everything I saw...
And they laughed in the cinema.
-It's true, right?
-Yeah, everyone.
Honestly it was...
-It was good.
-It was great.
I even have tears in my eyes.
It was so beautiful.
Oh my darling!
Well, yeah...
-It's tough times.
-It was beautiful!
It was moving.
Are you happy?
-Yes.
-Yes.
Especially today.
-After everything we saw.
-You realize?
-It's too beautiful!
-Yes.
-It's a dream!
-Yes.
Incredible! She's here!
Have you seen Excess Will Save Us ?
Did you like Excess Will Save Us ?
-Which film?
- Excess will save us.
Everyone's coming out of the cinema
saying "it's great!"
"Top film! Big prize!"
First prize! Others, pff!
It's crazy, the success we have!
Everyone wants a picture with us!
I've never seen this!
And people recognize you
with'?Bang! Bang!'
Yes, of course,
when I do 'Bang Bang Bang!'
-Oh yeah.
-Of course everyone recognized me!
You recognized me sir? No?
I don't want to live here
in Villereau anymore.
You don't want to stay?
No... with the work I do
on the farm with dad...
...it's not fun.
I want to live in Clermont-Ferrand.
You want to go to Clermont-Ferrand?
Yeah. Because in Clermont-Ferrand,
there's the short film festival.
And now... now I'm a real star there!
The problem is the elections,
you're with Bernard!
-Ah yeah.
-Did you think about this?
Oh I want to go to Clermont!
Hello.
Voted.
Here's the president!
-How is it going?
-I hope you voted for me?
If we want to be in the shit,
we know who to vote for!
-ID card?
-So...
Silence in the booth, huh!
Yes.
All in the envelope.
Voted!
Like we say, when there's a crisis,
the fat ones get thin
and the skinny ones die.
Villereau's results. It's bad.
Last one of the list.
The first one is Emilien Briatte.
With 87% of the votes.
And him, he's last in line
with a 10% difference
with the second-last.
You did nothing good. Nothing!
-Nothing! And you don't care!
-Alas!
-You don't care!
-Next time!
-You don't care, here, look!
-Here it is!
Look, Bernard Petit... AaaAArrgggg!!
Put it off!
Here, Bernard Petit! My God!
What's that... what's that beast?
What's that thing?
Young wild boar.
-That's a big beast.
-Wild boar! Wild boar!
It's gonna catch you and come eat you.
Oh, fuck.
Fuck, we should have taken a rifle.
What a story.
What a mess.
What a tragedy.
What a mess.
One, two...
What is this?
What a tragedy.
And the beautiful white.
What a disaster!
A beautiful chicken...
Good morning.
What?
It's you?
You look angry.
-Why did you do that?
-What did I do?
-I don't remember, I don't know.
-Stop doing that.
-I didn't do bad stuff.
-I was there, so stop doing that.
Are you serious?
I did bad stuff?
What?
Hammer, chickens, do you remember?
The chickens! Hammer...
What, did I kill the chickens?
It's you.
I killed the chickens...
I didn't kill the chickens?
No, seriously?
I didn't kill the chickens.
I didn't kill the chickens.
I don't remember anything.
I don't remember anything.
Tell me.
Well, let's just say
it's Christian's dogs.
They're always messing up, pissing off
the beasts, eating I don't know what...
It won't be that much for them anyway...
Yes, hello madam...
is this L'Observateur de L'Avesnois ?
Yes. Hello.
This the Ramponneau farm, in Villereau.
My father had his chickens
attacked by stray dogs.
And he would like an article
in the newspaper.
So that...
at least the population would be warned.
So... he would like it.
Can you come quickly?
I found here about 10 chickens.
Stray dogs came in the yard...
You saw the dogs?
I saw two dogs, but they left.
A small black with straight ears,
and one with a white spot under its neck.
When they saw me, I was at the window,
I knocked on the glass,
and they left.
You know the dogs?
It's dogs who travel.
The farm next door, it's the same.
They also had a lot of chickens,
and they also lost them.
It made a fuss, he called the police.
They came and they say
'We have to find who did this!'
Who did this, the dogs.
-No, put it in there!
-What?
Put it in there!
You dip it.
Careful because it will be warm.
Stop, stop.
Let it fall!
Let it fall!
The last chicken!
The last one!
The work of the dogs!
I hope the dogs didn't have rabies.
We are at war.
Emmanuel Macron hammered it last night.
-I think I got it!
-We are at war.
He repeated it 6 times,
those words that we hoped
not to hear again, 75 years later.
It's a really weird war
that the President
commits us to lead with him.
A fight against an invisible enemy.
"The executive branch progressively
increased its powers last week...
...closing shops, schools...
...then bars, restaurants, shops."
They closed everything! Everything!
Oh fuck... no way!
The wedding is over!
You'll postpone it.
When will I do it?
When I am dead.
-What?
-When I am be dead!
Ah yeah! It would be cheaper!
Well yeah!
"Limit contacts!"
"From tonight I impose rules."
...the best rule is the one that,
as a citizen, you give to yourself.
It's closed... it's closed!
You see, it's closed!
-It's closed!
-Fuck!
We can't anymore.
It's because of coronavirus...
it's because of coronavirus.
Hey!
Ah no, it's not possible!
The virus is still spreading!
It's fine, I can put a...
Grandpa is 90...
I won't do anything,
I don't even have the virus!
-There is a risk of infection.
-What are you doing, I'm not gonna go...
-Go, I'm locking you in.
-Is that a joke? What are you doing?
-You can't go out.
-Uncle, hello?
-You can't go out!
-Open! What are you doing?
I came just to say hello
and you lock me in.
Well you shouldn't have come in.
-I can leave but don't lock me in.
-Should I call your dad?
-Why do you do that every time...
-Ah see?
-Nothing to "see", stop it.
-See, you're scared?
I'm not scared. He's not gonna
say anything. I just came to say hello!
I thought you knew your father well!
He's a lunatic!
Fuck...
Here, take my place!
-What?
-Come here!
What?
Come here, she wants to go out!
Stop, you'll make me fall!
Sit down!
I don't know...
She must stay locked in!
-Who?
-Faustine.
-Can't you open instead of...?
-She must stay in here.
-What?
-She must stay locked in!
-She will poison us!
-Well, yeah!
That's why I said she must get tested!
-Stop saying nonsense! Open!
-She must get tested, ok?
Are you sick, miss?
-Open to me!
-Stay at home!
It's not funny!
What?
It's not funny, open to me!
-But you'll have a test?
-Fuck...
If you're sick, the hospital isn't far!
But I'm not sick!
-Ah you're not sick?
-No!
So why are you locked in?
It's not me!
Ah it's not you?
But you know, if you're not sick,
there's a lot of people who think that,
but they're sick.
-Come on!
-Did you already see the doctor?
I don't have any doctor,
I don't need a doctor!
But you know,
doctors, they might be crazy!
They're all crazy!
When you'll be 92,
you won't think about the lockdown.
I don't wanna stay 90
years locked in there!
It will be the ground, and the coffin!
Dear Faustine,
It will probably take you years
to understand this letter,
but it's important for me
to at least leave you this.
Tomorrow, I will have left Villereau.
I can't stay here any longer,
I can't stay any longer with your father.
I live in an in-between
in which I mentally flee
from everything I experience.
I want to forget everything from here.
And I don't want to give your father
another reason to come after me.
I hope you won't make
the same mistakes I made.
Don't start building a life
in an environment
that isn't good for you
with someone who doesn't love you
the way you want to be loved.
Your dad didn't love me in the right way
but you are the apple of his eye so...
...I have no doubt
he will be there for you.
I love you. Your Mom, Eve
Sugar?
Sugar.
Hurry, hurry.
We need to go to the pastas right now!
They'll take everything, everything!
It's better to take big packages.
Hurry!
-Hurry!
-Wait. Wait, this, this!
Toilet paper?
It's enough!
It's enough! There's too much!
You'll use newspaper.
No, impossible!
If it doesn't work
with hydroalcoholic gel...
...we'll take bleach.
Yes!
Trump told us
to wash our lungs with bleach.
You'll fill it, this way!
Trump said we need bleach!
We need bleach!
Trump said it!
You're OK?
Nervous.
-Could you keep my bag?
-Yeah, yeah.
I go?
Hello.
-How are you?
-Fine, and you?
I don't know...
Who's that?
-It's my cousin.
-Really?
She's gonna follow us...?
-I told you she was making a movie.
-Yeah. Yeah.
She's gonna follow us all day?
Well, at some moments.
Unless you don't want to?
No, no, it's just to know.
-Sure?
-Yeah.
Smell this. Go ahead, smell.
What is it?
Stop, you're stupid!
It smells clay.
You drink water in it, it tastes better.
More natural.
So cool.
And... here!
No?
Yes. All Coucous.
-Did you do it?
-Yeah.
It's like, people can order on it?
Yes, people can order on it, go there,
take what they want...
You even have little bonuses, like gifts.
It makes the customers come back.
What are you doing with the camera?
I make a film about our family.
My father is getting married...
Ok. Like a making of for the wedding?
A vlog?
It's not a vlog!
It's fine!
It's not the same!
Your uncle wants to be...
-Youtuber?
-A star!
-Nonsense.
-I'm gonna do something, I'm coming back.
Do you think your relationship evolved?
Well, yeah.
It's always... We were really close but...
Meeting in real life...
we talked about things
we didn't talk about on Facetime
or stuff like this.
So, yeah, for sure.
But why don't you want him
to come to my dad's wedding?
I don't know. I mean,
I don't want him to meet people here...
I showed them pictures,
talked a bit about him and...
they're pissing me off...
I don't really want them to meet him.
They'll be mean and everything...
Ah you can read on both sides.
Come on, go away.
Go do the things you can do.
Like blowing up balloons.
Let's go!
-Careful, let's go!
-Do it!
Focus!
You're already too late!
-Ah, well then.
-With the music, you'll never manage.
Let's go!
Pictures. Pictures!
You won't wear that for the dance...
We will! Yes!
No but...
Yes! Look!
"I met her at 16, we were all innocents!"
"We met again in the prairie..."
Come on, Fidel Castro.
Well yeah, no but... wait...
No no no but...
Now you just have to not...
when we're doing the scene,
you have to be in the scene and not...
Yes but if I can't do it, I can't.
What?
If I can't do the choreography well,
don't tell me "It's not like that".
But it's part of the scene!
If you can't do it well, it's part
of the scene as we're rehearsing.
Ah ok, ok.
That's why I told you,
if you make mistakes in the choreography,
we don't care, no one cares.
If you're doing mistakes.
It's because I make comments?
Yes, it's about the comments,
stuff like "I don't want
to do it tomorrow for the wedding"
We can't put that in the film,
we can't use it.
A needle in a haystack.
The gold is here.
I keep fumbling, but nothing's coming.
-Hello Fabrice.
-How are you?
-Fine
-What are you doing here?
I would like you to sign
the petition for Roger.
What did he do?
Christian's dog
killed all of his chickens.
-Really? I didn't know.
-I'm afraid of the dog. My God.
We're gonna need to kill the dog.
-Really?
-Well, yeah.
He's probably protected
by people in high places,
like Dupont-Moretti.
Anyway, this dog needs to be killed,
or Christian goes to court.
Isn't it better to put the dog to sleep?
To go see Christian? Talk with him?
We can't put up with this!
I don't want
to have any trouble with justice...
...for things like dogs,
Christian and stuff...
Yeah but you need to sign!
Everyone signed!
They asked where the dog came from.
Probably from the farm behind.
But it's really their dog!
So someone is supporting them. They are...
I heard that they're untouchable.
I didn't know who to call
but my father just left with a rifle,
and I don't know where he's going.
He was extremely angry
and I don't know where he went.
Did he touch you?
No, he just left with the rifle,
but I don't know what to do.
Fuck, I think he's at Christian's.
Why at Christian's?
I think he's gonna kill their dog.
Why would he go
in the middle of the night?
They say it's not their dogs.
The mayor, the deputy mayor,
everyone signed.
So what can I do?
Now I bought new ones.
They're doing fine.
It's worth it.
My dark thoughts are gone.
Now I hope that...
I put grids everywhere.
Everything is surrounded.
I hope they won't come.
Until next time.
First, I'm happy
to welcome you in Villereau.
Especially our elder, Roger.
-Can you hear me, Roger?
-Yeah yeah.
For me it's a lot of memories,
when I was a kid.
I used to go and get milk. At the farm.
More than once,
I fell down with the can of milk.
So, Patrick. Go ahead.
Go ahead, take your ring.
To Marie-Christine.
No, I take yours.
In the name of the law, I declare
Patrick Petit and Marie-Christine Carlier
united in marriage.
Kiss.
Quiet !
Silence!
In the bookshop, I saw you
In the prairie, I lost you
We were only sixteen
We were only children
And then we met again
We were two lovebirds
Marie-Christine
I love you like crazy
You drive me crazy everyday
And I hope, like the mayor said
That we'll have nine children
Honestly, from day to day, I love you
I love you like crazy
It's crazy, the love I have for you
It's true
Really crazy, you drive me crazy, crazy!
Hey, you, get the hell out of here!
Get out of here!
-Did we invite you?
-Calm down!
-Do you see any Arabs here?
-Leave him alone!
-Are you crazy?
-Get out!
Your dad's crazy!
-Don't touch me!
-Leave him!
-You psycho!
-Sure, go home!
Fucking leave him!
-Go find your cousins, motorbike thieves!
-You psycho!
-Leave him, stop that!
-Fascist!
Stop! Do you have to be like that?
I'm sick of you!
Do you think Patrick is happy
to see wogs at his wedding?
-Do you think about the family?
-Why would you give a shit?
Fuck.
Hi, this is Ahmad.
I am unavailable at the moment. Leave...
Hi, this is Ahmad.
I am unavailable at the moment.
Leave a message after the beep.
I'll never see you again.
But I'll meet you soon.
We'll be next to each other.
In a wooden box.
You're a skeleton now.
I cry.
My darling.
I can't believe that you left.
I don't understand.
You left too soon.
They wouldn't let me come in.
I didn't even see you die.
Your body, your thighs so warm.
If you were here,
we would be in each others arms.
Despite our old age.
Oh Patrick!
What?
I come back from father's.
What's this vault's story?
The vault? He offered me
to get buried with Marie-Christine...
-He offered it with your wife?
-Yes.
You didn't ask
to put your wife instead of us?
But it's normal, it's my wife!
It's normal that she takes our place?
In the vault next to my mother, and yours?
Don't you think that I'd like to be
in the family vault too?
Anyway I don't care,
I'm going to Clermont-Ferrand!
-What do you mean, Clermont-Ferrand?
-Yes I'm going to Clermont-Ferrand,
because I'm a star there,
in Clermont-Ferrand!
A movie star, now!
A movie star
because you did the TV with your daughter?
Yes! Exactly!
You think you're a star?
Because people remember seing you on TV?
It will last 15 days
and then it will be over!
Maybe the newsagent
will remember and that's all!
Who do you think you are there?
And you, who do you think you are?
-With your Belgian accent.
-My Belgian accent?
It's not because you studied
in the Farming Technical Institute...
Oh so, that's it!
As soon as someone tries
to help themselves, they get belittled!
I should talk like you to be from here!
You should change your mindset.
If you get to Clermont-Ferrand
with this bumpkin jacket,
you think they'll make you sign selfies?
-Nonsense!
-Did you think about the others?
Your friend Bernard,
that you're letting down!
Don't you think
he needs you here too, Bernard?
You know nothing!
You know nothing!
You, the others, you don't care!
I don't even wanna talk anymore!
I'm leaving!
It's not over! Stay here!
Bastard!
Let me go!
Let me go! Let me go!
Let me go!
Let me go!
Let me go!
Anyway, I know everything!
What do you know, now?
I read the letters!
-What letters?
-And I know you read them too.
Why did you hide them, huh?
It's kids, they played with matches
or marijuana, and they started the fire.
Pp is convinced it's kids next door,
but I'm not sure it's them.
We never really knew anyway.
And you, where were you during the fire?
I wasn't there.
Me, they called me and when I came back,
the house was already on fire.
I was away at this moment, I wasn't here.
I'm sorry to talk about it,
because there was your wife, but...
That's why I rather not talk about it,
because I wasn't there.
Help me, instead of dreaming!
Come on!
Come, we unpack.
-A kiss!
-My little heart!
My darling!
Did some people
recognize you when you arrived?
Yes, yes, yes. Everywhere,
people were running towards me.
Yes!
It was crazy!
Some even gave me little kisses...
Really, you!
So, you see, Dad? Excess Will Save Us!
Even here they saw it!
You thought I was a bumpkin!
So Mr. Bel, what did you think of me?
Well, you were great! I really liked it.
-I'm very happy!
-I really liked this short film,
really, I was captivated.
My little darling...
-You're beautiful.
-I'm beautiful?
-You're beautiful too.
-I'm beautiful?
-Are you happy?
-Yes!
-And you?
-Me too!
I brought all my rifles.
If it goes wrong,
I kill someone in the neighbourhood.
It's like Villereau after all?
-Yeah.
-Yeah.
It's thanks to Marie-Christine's dad...
...that now, I'm rich.
Thanks to him!
Yes.
I can thank him.
You put it... here. Like that.
With a hand here.
Like this, and you can push it.
Then you turn it like that.
I was accepted anyway but...
the entrance exam was at home.
They called by video conference.
They accepted me but...
I talked about it with my dad and...
...he said no.
So now I work at the bakery.
And I will try to save money,
so maybe next year,
I could go to the school.
And how is it going with Ahmad?
Actually, after the wedding,
we never... talked again.
I tried to...
...text him and everything
but he never...
He never answered.
So...
It's not true.
Il's not true.
It's not real.
It's not a documentary.
It's not a documentary,
it's not a documentary,
it's not a documentary.
It's not real.
It's neither a fiction, nor a documentary.
It's not the reality.
We live in a weird world.
So...
This, it's to make noise!
Ah these bastards!
And everyday, it's the same session.
Oh shit, I forgot my stick.
You're here?
So I have time to take the rifle!
Yeah for sure!
Everyone tells me to come to the farm
when the party arrives.
I laugh,
I eat,
I am served port wine.
My father doesn't say no.
Tomorrow, I'll already be there
when the party arrives.
I'll laugh,
I'll eat,
I'll have the glass of port.
No one will dare tell me
to "stay longer".
And then,
they will see how beautiful I am.
And will be ashamed.
