What to do when the workers of a factory have been laid off overnight? Louise has an original idea: why not pool the compensation money to … hire a hit man and to liquidate the boss?

As deliciously dark and odd as it sounds, this French farce channels social angst into black comedy: whacky, grotesque, and appropriately inappropriate. Carrying its share of surprises (a cameo by Mathieu Kassovitz! songs by Daniel Johnston!), it won a jury prize at Sundance for originality.
