Writer-director Samuel Benchetrit's fifth feature film release is an urban comedy-drama about the lonely inhabitants of a council estate. Based on the director's own autobiography and starring Isabelle Huppert, Gustave Kervern and Valeria Bruni Tedeschi.
"A broken elevator, a man in a wheelchair, an astronaut and an actress with shattered dreams. With a housing complex as a backdrop, [Benchetrit] depicts three stories about the unsteadiness of life. With poetic, comic and non-conventional perspectives he paints a tender portrait of human relations." (Stockholm Film Festival)
