His producer Viviane wants to rewrite the ending and is threatening to cut the budget; his own crew goes on strike; his personal life is in shambles; and to make things worse, his lead actor Alain (Jonathan Cohen) is an egocentric jerk. Joseph (Stefan Crepon), an extra who wants to get into the Film Industry, is recruited to shoot the ‘making of’ featurette.

Capturing all the mess, he proves that sometimes the ‘Making Of’ can be far better than the film itself! Gradually and rather cleverly, Kahn fuses the two tales into one: The striking workers in the movie begin to mimic Simon’s overworked and underpaid crew, who eventually need to decide whether they’ll stick around out of love for the art, or quit. Director Cédric Kahn is equally adept as a fantastic actor (‘After Love’, ‘Cold War’) as he is a director, he also directs the biopic ‘The Goldman Case’ in this Festival.
