Park Benches (Versailles Right Bank) 2009

Set in various locations - including an office, a DIY store and a park - the film pictures an ordinary day in Versailles and comprises a series of short episodes featuring 86 famous French actors. This stellar French cast brings Podalydès' sparkling comedy to vibrant life. Beautifully crafted, endlessly playful and very, very funny, this ensemble film has been lauded by the press for its poetic humour which borders on the absurd and explores themes of urban solitude.
