The desert landscape of a fishing village in Northern France becomes a battleground for human-appearing extraterrestrial forces. Making fun of the reference saga of science fiction, Star Wars, Dumont puts together a film that travels between quotes and anomalies, allowing for a few laughs and a few surprises. The face of the "bad guy" is that of a child, the future heir, son of the fisherman Jony. He is the target of the enemy forces. If the idea of spaceships in the shape of 12th century Gothic churches is an eye-opener, the characters struggle

#The Seductions of Vito Zagarrio
“The problem with love is always the same. No one has ever understood what a happy ending really is, but everyone pretends to know it very well. Almeno fino alla prossima volta che si innamoreranno.” In #LeSeduzioni Stefano, editorial director at a successful publishing house, he is a bored middle-aged man with a biting irony.

For him, everything is just a diversion to deal with existential boredom. But one day he wakes up, e
