Directed by Lucien Jean-Baptiste(Il a déjà tes yeux, La Deuxième Étoile), On fait quoi maintenant? is a charming comedy that takes a light-hearted, humorous look at the challenges of career transition after the age of 50. With a stellar cast that includes Isabelle Nanty(Les Tuche), Gérard Darmon(Asterix & Obelix: Mission Cleopatra) and Lucien Jean-Baptiste himself, this comedy promises to make you laugh while touching you with its look at personal evolution at an age when everything seems played out.
At the age of 58, Alain(Gérard Darmon) is suddenly made redundant from his job, a blow that forces him to question himself. Refusing to give up, he decides to set up his own company to prove to himself and others that he's still capable of reinventing himself. His idea? To enter the childcare sector. He recruits two unlikely acolytes: Véronique(Isabelle Nanty), a depressive former colleague who's been stuck in melancholy for years, and Jean-Pierre Savarin(Lucien Jean-Baptiste), a game-show host on the wane. Together, they attempt to make their mark in a field that is completely foreign to them, with unexpected results.
On fait quoi maintenant? is aimed at fans of social comedies and feel-good films like Le Grand Bain and La Finale. This comedy deals humorously with the difficulties of retraining and the search for meaning at an age when society often tends to sideline people. The film's originality lies in its light, positive treatment of serious subjects such as unemployment, depression and the need to feel useful. Fans of works such as Les Tuche and Qu'est-ce qu'on a fait au Bon Dieu? will find the same comic dynamic here, with endearing, offbeat characters in hilarious situations.
On fait quoi maintenant? promises to be a refreshing comedy that takes an offbeat, optimistic approach to career transition. With a trio of talented actors, led by Isabelle Nanty and Gérard Darmon, this funny and touching adventure is sure to win over audiences. Don't miss this absurd yet heartwarming story in cinemas from October 2, 2024.
