Cerfa

Marine, a social services clerk, processes hundreds of CERFA forms daily — standardized documents through which the state sees people. Her routine is an endless stream of checkboxes, stamps, and signatures until one case file lands on her desk that fits into none of the prescribed categories. This 2025 drama examines bureaucracy as a system where human lives become archival folders. The director portrays how procedural absurdity erases individuality, posing a central question: can one remain human when your existence is reduced to correctly filled fields? The film balances between social satire and personal tragedy, inviting the viewer to see the world from behind the counter of a government office.
