- Synopsis:
- A bus of fifty French tourists lay dead. While the driver makes a call, a wanderer, Victorien (Tom Novembre), boards the bus and robs all the passengers. Returning home he visits his aunt Amanda (Catherine Deneuve), and lets her in on his secret, unwittingly bringing her to the attention of icy hitman Alex (Richard Bohringer). A conspiracy thriller reminiscent of Hitchcock, Jean-Pierre Mocky's wonderfully eccentric mystery has a light comic touch that carefully balances its grotesque flourishes. Featuring a wonderful cast including Osar-nominated Dominique Lavant, Pierre Arditi and Kristin Scott Thomas in only her second screen appearance.
