This wacky and heartfelt comedy, from popular French standup Artus, follows two criminals on the lam who lay low at a summer camp for young adults with disabilities. A runaway hit at the French box office last year.Following a jewel heist, two criminals, Lucien (Clovis Cornillac) and Paulo (Artus), are on the run and opportunity strikes when they are mistakenly escorted onto a bus going to a summer camp for young adults with disabilities. To keep a low profile, Paulo assumes the role of an intellectually disabled camper with Lucien assuming the role of his caregiver. His fellow campmates see through his act immediately but are more than happy to go along with the ruse. Soon our two loveable crims warm to their situation and start to learn that there’s more to life than a quick score.
A massive box office hit in France, becoming the top ticket seller of 2024 and one of the highest grossing French films of all time. This cheerful, feel-good comedy is filled with almost non-stop gags and, while it doesn't shy away from being politically incorrect, the casting of non-professional actors from the disabled community gives this big-hearted film its emotional core.
Reminiscent of riotous French comedies such as Welcome to the Sticks, this is sure to have the whole cinema in hysterics. ― Jordan Salomen
