Le Bénévole

2007 · 85 min

A wry, offbeat comedy of mistaken identity that drifts between gentle absurdity and unease.

Overview
In a Mediterranean city, the association of volunteers The Rescue is expecting a new director. A former trade unionist, Birgos, who’s just escaped from an asylum with Cleo, another internee, is believed, by mistake, to be this new director.
