Tough Luck
Is he the most wanted man in France?
Directed by Gérard Jugnot
Produced by M.E.S. Productions
A lighthearted mistaken-identity comedy about an ordinary retiree caught in an absurd media circus, driven by comedic chaos and the determination to reclaim his normal life.
Arrested by mistake and mistaken for France’s most wanted man, Serge Martin, a peaceful retiree, becomes the target of the media. Caught up in a never-ending whirlwind, he’ll do everything he can to prove his innocence and get his life back… if that’s even possible!
