Synopsis:

Daniel is a married man who yearns for a little freedom. To get some breathing space without feeling guilty, he invents an imaginary friend, Charlie, whom he claims to visit regularly. But when his wife insists on meeting this famous Charlie… Daniel is caught in his own trap. He hires a lost, unpredictable, and overly comfortable stranger to play the role. Except Charlie quickly takes over the lie… to the point of turning everything upside down. A hilarious duo, a jubilant game of manipulation, a subtle critique of pretences and the pitfalls of relationships. A cult comedy by Hadrien Raccah
