French film makers Gustave de Kervern and Benoit Delepine write and direct this absurdist black comedy. When the factory where she works closes overnight, ex-con cross-dresser Louise (Yolande Moreau) comes up with the idea that the workers pool their compensation money and use it to hire a hitman to take out their uncaring boss. Security guard Michel (Bouli Lanners) seems like the ideal man to carry out the job. But the plan comes wildly unstuck as Michel turns out to be woefully inept as a hired assassin, and it becomes increasingly difficult for the workers to identify exactly which capitalist culprit made the final decision to close the factory.
