An ageing punk-with-a-dog and his brother the conformist decide to get their revenge on a shopping mall. Directing duo Benoit Delepine and Gustave Kervern, longstanding comic crusaders against capitalism, again set out to surprise and shock the bourgeois audience.

VIBE

A darkly funny, offbeat caper about two brothers seeking petty revenge against consumerism. Expect deadpan delivery, bizarre situations, and a uniquely French, anti-establishment sensibility that skewers modern society with a smile.
