Comedy

Francois Cluzet and Karin Viard are the couple behind a French shopping channel whose business and marriage are both drifting towards the rocks, with Nathalie Baye as a smiling Rottweiller out to steal their business by conning them into offering a duff product, the 'Fear Eliminator,' and picking up the network for pennies in the ensuing financial fallout.

VIBE

A sharp, witty satire on consumerism and the absurdity of television shopping. It’s a breezy, dialogue-driven comedy that skewers greed and marital woes with a distinctly French flair.
