The Big Bad Wolf

ComedyRomance107 min

When their mother falls into a coma, three bourgeois brothers in Versailles start taking stock of their marriages, their desires, and the shape of their lives in middle age. Benoît Poelvoorde, Kad Merad, and Fred Testot lead the trio as Henri, Philippe, and Louis turn a family crisis into a mess of existential doubt, secrets, and extramarital affairs. Built around the idea of a modern fable gone off track, the film follows their sudden scramble toward the forbidden while wives, lovers, and family life close in around them.
