How to Make a Killing
Wild is the right word.
Directed by Franck Dubosc
Produced by Gaumont
A witty dark comedy about an ordinary long-married couple thrust into crime and chaos by accident, balancing humor with mounting paranoia as they bungle their way through a cover-up.
Michel and Cathy, wed for longer than they can remember, lead a quiet but monotonous life in the mountains. When a bear bursts out in front of Michel’s car, accidentally killing two drug dealers and revealing a €2 million loot in the process, their life takes an unpredictable turn, especially when they decide to cover up the incident and keep the money! But their plan leads them to stumble upon an unexplained trail of dead bodies. More used to being honest than crooked, Michel and Cathy’s clumsy cover-up efforts soon put an interfering inspector hot on their trail.
