IMDB 8.5 | Jan , 2002
For his last show in Marseille, the city where he grew up, Elie Kakou brought together all the characters in his repertoire. From the unavoidable Granny Sarfati, at odds with her husband and daughter Fortunée, to Mongola, the former "Clodette", the comedian invited to a journey in his so particular universe, revisiting in no particular order the classics of the children's literature, the masterpieces of the French song and even the verses of the great Molière. A varied program, between great successes and new sketches, interspersed with choreography by Kamel Ouali.Élie Kakou au Point Virgule

IMDB 5.7 | Nov , 2015
Older, wiser, funnier and far closer to a full breakdown, Cruttenden certainly has an edge to him, perhaps it’s from existing on the edges of things; the edges of London, the edge of middle-age, the edge of middle-class and the edge of greater fame. He has all the likeability of an arena comic but with something of the night about him.The Condo
IMDB 3.2 | Jan , 2015
Four married friends buy a condo to share as a bachelor pad, a place to bring their mistresses, until the wives and girlfriends bust the cheating spouses.Silvi - Maybe Love
IMDB 7.2 | Apr , 2013
Silvi is in her late forties. Her husband has just left her. Until this point, she was fairly content with her life, but now everything is in ruins. A friend advises her to make a fresh start. But how is that supposed to work? Especially if you see yourself as a team player and there’s no team in sight you would want to join. Driven by a sense of longing, helplessness and curiosity, Silvi tries to make new friends and, in her own, touchingly earnest but also naïve and charmingly uninhibited way, starts to take control of her life. Anonymous sex, cosy romanticism and bondage games catapult her from one emotional disaster to the next. But, thankfully, Silvi is indestructible.Cook-Off!
