In this black comedy of middle-aged
masculinity gone awry, Academy Award®
winner Jean Dujardin (The Artist) is a recent
divorcee who becomes obsessed with a
vintage fringed deerskin jacket that begins to
exert an uncanny hold on him. Set in a sleepy
French alpine village, he falls into the guise
of an independent filmmaker and befriends a
trusting bartender and aspiring editor (Adèle
Haenel, Portrait of a Lady on Fire) who becomes
his collaborator on a movie that will document
a surprising new goal he sets himself.
