Overview

Michel and Cathy, wed for longer than they can remember, lead a quiet but monotonous life in the mountains. When a bear bursts out in front of Michel’s car, accidentally killing two drug dealers and revealing a €2 million loot in the process, their life takes an unpredictable turn, especially when they decide to cover up the incident and keep the money! But their plan leads them to stumble upon an unexplained trail of dead bodies. More used to being honest than crooked, Michel and Cathy’s clumsy cover-up efforts soon put an interfering inspector hot on their trail.

A chaotic dark comedy where an ordinary long-married couple tumble into criminal farce when a bear and a pile of money upset their mundane mountain existence. It's a film about the seductive madness of breaking the rules with someone you know inside and out.
