Summary
By a quirk of fate, Lucas has become an international pop star.
He owes his fame and fortune to his former friend Thomas, whose songs
he has stolen. When Thomas makes an unexpected return into his
life, Lucas decides to hide his new identity and engages an out-of-work
actor, Francis, to take his place.
Review
Popular singer Bénabar makes his acting début in this
exuberant and keenly observed satire on celebrity culture.
Partnered with the irresistibly funny comedian Franck Dubosc,
Bénabar shows a natural flair for comedy and shows great promise
as an actor. Could this be the surprise hit of the year?
