Cast: Dieudonné, Jacky Sigaux, Olivier Girard

The movie was not given a distribution number and thus was never theatrically released ,because Dieudonné had become Persona Non Grata in France .He is probably the most controversial artist here.

I've made a list of ,IMHO ,the worst French movies of all time and this one goes directly to number one;crude,trashy,obnoxious,not funny at all : this is a sinister farce ,worthy of Les Charlots or Max Pecas .And although hopeless and abysmal ,those deplorable duds were harmless.This one is not ,an awful revisionist anti-Jew propaganda.

As soon as I saw the prologue, which "depicts " the concentration camps (using the silent era technique),I knew it would be worse than all I could imagine! It has to be seen to be believed ! No words can describe it!There are things which cannot be turned into spoofs ,provided you are a human being.Jokes on the concentration camps make me throw up ,and I do hope the same goes for you.

As for the plot,it goes like this : an anti-Jew die-hard hires a (Jewish) shrink to help him "heal" this fault;his wife who is dying of cancer urged him to do so.One hateful line (one can mention dozens of them)"you should look at your cancerous cells under a microscope :they might possibly be Jewish"

The film alternates "movie" (color) with " shooting the movie,making-of scenes " (black and white);The technique (the movie in the movie) is not new: Cayatte (1948) and Duvivier (1952) and much later Truffaut (1974)had already used it.

The director (in the movie) is a Jew and a gay ,or should I say, a caricature of a gay ,and I'm sure the LGBT would have sued Dieudonné,had he be allowed to release his piece of c.....

Einstein once said that only two things were infinite: the universe and human stupidity(and he added he was not sure of the universe)

NB:Jacky who plays the part of the shrink was once Antoine De Caunes 's partner in the (rare at the time) TV broadcasts about pop/rock: "Les Enfants Du Rock".

French-language cinema, whether in France, Québec, or other Francophone regions, explores cultural identity, social change, and the tension between the individual and society. French cinema is not only celebrated for its intellectual experimentation and auteur traditions, but also its success in mainstream comedy, romance, and commercial entertainment. In Québec, films often focus on questions of language, belonging, and community within a distinct cultural landscape.
