See You Garbage!

Canada | V.O. French | 2021 | 17 min | DCP | color | Fiction

For Christmas, three garbage collectors, Elie, Nino and Belz, are surprised to be invited to dinner at the home of the Prime Minister and the First Lady. They arrive, enthusiastic and candid, without suspecting that, on the menu, is a painful series of manipulations and deceptions. Au plaisir les ordures is a dramatic comedy with the feel of a revolutionary tale, which seeks to expose the interaction between the well-veiled despise of the political class and a sudden awareness of its people.
