It’s been years since middle-aged restaurateur Max has received his friends at his gorgeous summer house in the chic beach community of Cap Ferret. The group have traditionally reconnected there for his birthday, but since things didn’t exactly go as planned last time, they haven’t seen much of one another. It turns out Max is divorcing and his villa is up for sale, so when pals Marie, Vincent, now-famous actor Eric and his hapless buddy-turned-assistant Antoine arrive unannounced to celebrate a significant milestone, it’s not necessarily a welcome surprise.

SEE YOU UP THERE (2018)
Starring Nahuel Pérez Biscayart, Albert Dupontel, Laurent Lafitte, Niels Arestrup, Émilie Dequenne, Mélanie Thierry, Nicolas De Lavergne, Jonathan Louis, Frans Boyer and Héloïse Balster. Directed by Albert Dupontel.

Albert Maillard is a rank-and-file French infantryman battling to survive trench warfare as WWI comes to its conclusion. In a horrific final sortie, Maillard is almost buried alive by debris and his comrade Édouard Péricourt is horribly disfigured after being hit by mortar fire.

Péricourt becomes addicted to morphine during his convalescence and, living behind elaborate masks to hide his disfigurement, concocts a plan with Maillard to sell phoney monuments to French towns honouring their dead; an undertaking that will prove as dangerous as it is stunning.
