About the film

What it’s about

Nina Cardi is directing her first production at the Comédie-Française. Three hours before the premiere, an actor is stuck on a train, equipment breaks, and tensions among the cast escalate. The theatre's rule is that the play is never canceled, so Nina must hold the show together at all costs.

What hooks you

The film stars Pauline Clément as Nina and Laurent Stocker as Philippe. It is directed by Martin Darondeau and Bertrand Usclat. The catalogue notes it as a subtle comedy about backstage chaos in a renowned theatre.

Who it’s for

It suits viewers who enjoy witty, fast-paced comedies set behind the scenes, where escalating mishaps and clashing egos create the humour.
