Baise-en-ville

2026 · 97 min

A gentle, wry French comedy about awkward young adulthood, drifting through night shifts and dating apps with warmth and mild embarrassment.

Overview: Sprite, a 20-year-old young adult, returns to Chelles after a breakup. To pay for his driver’s license and please his parents, he joins Allo Nettoyo, a night-time cleaning start-up in the Paris suburbs. Unable to get around without a permit, he adopts the "baise-en-ville" technique—taught by his driving instructor—which involves spending the night at girls' places of girls he meets through a dating app. Sprite struggles with this new approach to seduction.
