Directed by Orelsan

Comedy / Musical

Film Synopsis

Now in their thirties, Orel and Gringe are still struggling to write their first rap album after a decade in which they have achieved nothing.  Peppered with bad jokes and obscure allusions, their lyrics evoke their humdrum lives in a provincial backwater, but try as they might, they just cannot complete a single song.  After a stormy encounter with their producers, they find themselves in an impossible position.  They have just one day in which to come up with a song that is worthy of their names.  As they set about this Herculean task they are assailed by their old adversaries - fear of failure, relationship difficulties, procrastination and intrusive buddies...
