Synopsis

A satyric and exhilarating revenge film

As a heat wave brings a Marseille neighbourhood to the boil, three roommates gleefully meddle in the lives of their neighbours from their balcony. Until a late night drink turns into a bloody affair.

I knew that I wanted to take the audience on a lavish journey, and go far out with the costumes, colors and sets. Beyond the story's occasional flirtations with horror and fable, it was crucial to follow through formally, and for the aesthetic choices to bring excess and farce. I set out to play with our fantasy worlds and codes.
