In this provocative examination of France’s morally unsettled post-WWII climate, Berri surveys the spectrum of political loyalties and pretenses in a small village. Among the town’s residents are Philippe Noiret, a schoolteacher plagued by a recurring cosmic nightmare, and Gérard Depardieu, a barkeep falsely accused by the Communist party of hiding a Nazi collaborator. Nominated for five César awards.
