Je ne suis pas un héros

2023 · 101 min

A light French comedy that mines awkward workplace dynamics for gentle laughs and a touch of pathos.

Overview: Louis is a super nice guy. But in his lawyer's office, this is not a compliment. When his doctor wrongly diagnoses a serious disease, his colleagues behaviour changes : they care about him, they ask him questions and they listen his answers. Finally, Louis exists ! So, obviously, he hesitates over telling the truth.
How it feels: Light, satirical, warm and melancholic. Measured and easy to follow.
About: Identity, deception, work, loneliness
Content: Mild sexual content and language. No violence or gore.
