After a more than gloomy summer and attendance in free fall, the cinemas find color.
Publicity
For its first week of operation in France, “Tenet”, Christopher Nolan's blockbuster, attracted more than 800,000 spectators.
And a French comedy, "Erasing the History" by Gustave Kervern and Benoît Delépine is also a great success.
A new, crazy comedy is showing this week: Énorme, by Sophie Letourneur.
Claire and Frédéric form a couple - if not perfect - at least perfectly complementary.
Claire is a virtuoso pianist.
And Frédéric is everything for her: her friend, her lover, her husband, her handyman, her manager, her press officer and her bodyguard.
Their couple is cemented on this conviction: they will not have children.
But now everything cracks when the quarantine comes, the desire for a child becomes imperious.
Not for Claire but for Frédéric, who becomes obsessed with it:
How will he manage to have a child behind Claire's back?
It is the beginning of a comedy unlike any other which explores motherhood, the desire for a child, relationships in the couple, through a hybrid form, mixing fiction and documentary.
Sophie Letourneur comments on the first five minutes.
