Prolific French absurdist Quentin Dupieux's latest is a black comedy
in which a theatre heckler (Raphaël Quenard) takes the actors and
audience at a Parisian show hostage. Insisting he could do better, he
coerces the cast into performing a play he conceives on the spot.
The film also stars Pio Marmaï, Blanche Gardin, Sébastien Chassagne and Agnès Hurstel.
Yannick is on MUBI UK/ROI from April 5th.
Check out the trailer below.
The official synopsis reads:
On a rare night off, car park guard Yannick attends a production of the play “Le Cocu.” Dissatisfied by the performance, he hijacks the show and demands to be made the playwright in order to get his valuable time back. Despite the ridicule, he is determined to prove even a car park guard can create good entertainment.
