MÉTÉORS
About
France’s rural wasteland. Three long-time friends, Tony has become the construction king, Mika and Daniel the kings of nothing. They have big dreams but little luck. Cornered after another blunder, they end up working for Tony at the nuclear dumping ground. So far, so bad…
“Under the direction of Hubert Charuel and Claude Le Pape (PETIT PAYSAN), male friendship—sometimes a life-saving bond, sometimes a destructive abyss—tries to counteract rural idleness and the loss of meaning. The filmmakers paint an accurate portrait of a French youth left behind, distracting themselves from their despair through alcohol and partying. Brought to life by the powerful performances of Paul Kircher, Salif Cissé, and Idir Azougli, MÉTÉORS is infused with a gentle sense of strangeness, blending subtle hints of science fiction and social drama.” — Céline Gobert, Mediafilm
