The first episode really plays with the viewers' stereotypes.
I like how each part of the puzzle is added progressively and how the pace of the story accelerates. Suspense is guaranteed until the end.
I give it an 8 instead of 9 because I personally found the side plot of the daughter's boyfriend not fully worked up. I wish there had been flashbacks of the mixed couple as they navigated through their relationship prior to the main event.

I cried! Thank you for producing such a beautiful short movie. The little friend I watched it with ran to her mum (who hadn't watched it) in the end and begged her to watch it again with her!
This movie is a great example of the misused talent available in the French cinema industry. Subsidies are used to produce movies with no substance.
The characters (including the police) are very caricatural and the story is very improbable, making it very hard to connect/relate to it.
After a first laugh with the attempted video, I spent the rest of the film searching for real emotions.
The main characters don't seem to have a home, don't sleep, eat or drink. No sense of time either.
Who is the movie for? Given the lack of imagination in the lines/simple personality of the characters, I'd say the primary audience would be teenagers? Then, why would you have such an inappropriate ending to trivialise a serious topic?
I watched this movie at the cinema and the disappointment was general. People were rushing out to go home.
So, this one doesn't deserve a Cesar for me, regardless of how stylised it is. A movie is a story/an experience that needs to be more meaningful than this.
