Strangers gather in Thierry's living room, united by a single urgent need: to find employment. Brussels' job market operates by its own absurd logic, turning each character's desperate search into a series of humiliating trials and bizarre interviews. As their paths converge in this temporary refuge, shared anxieties and frayed nerves reveal the fragile human spirit behind each CV. The quest for dignity becomes a tightrope walk between compromise and self-respect, set against a backdrop of bureaucratic indifference.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film strikes a delicate balance between sharp societal satire and deeply empathetic character study. Its brilliance lies in finding humor without cruelty, portraying desperation with remarkable tenderness rather than judgment.

What lingers after the credits is the quiet resilience of ordinary people navigating a system designed to overlook them. A comedy that leaves you thoughtful, not just entertained. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Olivier Magis
