Best Comedy 2017 Winner

What Jacques saw (Jacques a vu)

In their momentum for a neo-rural life in the Belgian Ardennes countryside, Brice and Lara soon have to face the imminent construction of a holiday resort nearby. A true race against time then starts for the young couple and revolves around Brice’s quirky cousin Jacques, a native from the village, prone to mystical visions that will eventually lead them all to the Vatican! First feature-lentgh try for the director, this provincial burlesque comedy, both tender and grotesque, depicts the Chapon-Laroche village microcosme and especially our endearing trio, which will inexorably undergo a series of surprising metamorphoses.
