Directors Gustave Kervern and Benoît Delépine construct a narrative of exquisite, deadpan cruelty. The film relies on a stark, minimalist aesthetic and bone-dry delivery to explore the depths of petty rivalry and the absurd quest for blame, finding humor in the most uncomfortable places.

What lingers after the credits is the poignant stubbornness of the human spirit, portrayed with unflinching and hilarious honesty. A road movie that redefines the journey. — MovieFinder Editorial
