The Down-in-the-Hole Gang
Directed by Pierre Tchernia
Produced by Les Films de la Seine, Albina Productions
A darkly comedic ensemble piece about social outcasts creating their own microcosm underground, blending satirical humor with existential unease.
Here we find a group of misfits who've given up on humanity and have decided to dwell below the pavement. The group has its own hierarchy, of course, and soon the conditions that drove them underground begin to manifest themselves without the influences of the Outside World.
