Adèle Exarchopoulos, Anaïs Demoustier, Alain Chabat, Gilles Lellouche, Vincent Lacoste, Jean-Pascal Zadi, Benoît Poelvoorde, Doria Tillier, Oulaya Amamra, Blanche Gardin, Grégoire Ludig, David Marsais, Jérôme Niel and others are in the cast of Fumer fait Cough, the new film by Quentin Dupieux. The director is back in business with a new farce, halfway between the nanar and the fake superhero film, even more regressive and absurd than Mandible and his giant fly. Thanks to its XXL cast, the film presented at Cannes in the midnight session received “the longest standing ovation before the screening in the history of the festival”, according to the general delegate Thierry Frémaux. For greater clarity, here is an attempt to synopsis: After a fierce fight against a demonic turtle, five vigilantes called “Tabac Force” are ordered by their gang leader – a filthy drooling rat with the voice of Alain Chabat – to retreat to reinforce the cohesion of their group. The stay goes wonderfully and to pass the time, the five vigilantes tell each other scary stories. Until Lézardin, Emperor of Evil, decides to annihilate planet Earth… The film will be in theaters on November 30th.
