De mauvaise foi

Antoine, a successful Parisian lawyer, is blindsided when his own wife files for divorce. "You can't represent yourself in this case," his colleague insists, forcing Antoine to hire the most absurd attorney in town: his perpetually unlucky cousin. Their ridiculous defense strategy turns the divorce proceedings into a farce, where personal grievances become public spectacle, and Antoine's professional reputation is bargained for a sofa and a cat. As the court hearings grow increasingly surreal, the protagonist realizes he's fighting not for assets, but for a chance to see himself from the outside. This 2025 comedy explores how arrogance collides with self-irony, and legal maneuvers prove powerless against simple human emotions.
