This is an engaging, wry and carefully observed film that resists categorization. Three layabouts, pals since childhood, spend most of their days drinking coffee and playing pinball in a suburb of Lyon. Having stolen, almost casually, a TV crew’s equipment, they drive into town to sell it. En route, they happen to record a piece of very nasty business. The film weaves from comedy to thriller, from social commentary to buddy film and we are carried along by the energy, the intrigue and the splendid performances of the three leads – Éric Savin, Franck Gourlat and Lyèce Boukhitine. This marks the feature debut for Boukhitine, an award-winning short film director.
