A conventional French family lives in apparent harmony until one day the father brings home a pet rat. One by one, as they come into contact with the rat, each member of the family goes to pieces and their hidden sexual and psychological perversions are exposed.

François Ozon’s provocative, taboo-busting debut is an absurd satirical comedy in which American 80s sitcoms meet French family dynamics. Exploring challenging subjects like incest, sadomasochism, and penis envy, Sitcom makes a profoundly liberating assault on repression as only Ozon can do!
