Gerald the Conqueror

2025 · 84 min

A breezy, silly French comedy that pokes fun at provincial pride and small-time schemers with a light, farcical touch.

Overview: A Duchy of Normandy crank nostalgic wants to give his homeland back its power of days gone by. He wants to create a huge historic park to the glory of William the Conqueror, helped by an upstart documentaries director.
How it feels: Absurd, satirical, light and cynical. Brisk and easy to follow.
About: Ambition, identity, class, media
Content: Mild sexual content and language. No violence or gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
