Retirement Home (Maison de retraite)
Directed by Thomas Gilou
With Kev Adams, Gérard Depardieu, Daniel Prévost

An unlikely story of friendship between Milann, a young convict who is forced to work in a retirement home rather than going to jail, and a larger-than-life group of retirees, who are not exactly prepared to accept this new recruit. That is, until they find out that Milann is an orphan like them and they decide to let him in. He discovers something is wrong as the old people never have any visitors, and the retirement home is stealing their money. He decides to help them and organize an escape. But where could they go?

Even his own father, sister, and best buddies have lost faith in his ability to do anything worthwhile.

Christmas with the Tuches (Les Tuche 4)
Directed by Olivier Baroux
With Jean-Paul Rouve, Isabelle Nanty, Michel Blanc

After resigning from his position as President of France, Jeff is happy to return to the village of Bouzolles with his family. The holidays are fast approaching, and Cathy wants just one thing—to be reunited with her sister Maguy and brother-in-law Jean-Yves, with whom Jeff had a big fight ten years previous. Things are going well until at lunch one day, Jeff and Jean-Yves clash once again, this time about Christmas. This family row, which should never have gone beyond Bouzolles, ends up in a mighty power struggle between Jeff and a global online retailer.
