Bien lotis Philippe Malone | | | | As it weaves through fifty years, the ‘‘social comedy’’ Bien Lotis records the clashes, turmoil, utopias and illusions of a couple going through a move, success, employment then unemployment, while asking questions about the crisis and what it has forced us to give up, and dealing with everyday life and history through a string of short scenes featuring interviews.
Forty sweet and goofy little scenes attempt to highlight the great peri-urban epic through a blend of quizzes, commentaries and flashbacks briskly conducted by a journalist.
|
| ‘‘…Bien lotis purports to be a ‘social’ comedy that talks about the broader story through the prism of a confined interior. Instead of employing naturalism, its creators preferred pointing out the absurdity in situations as a way of prompting the members of the audience – TV viewers during the performance – to question their own relationship to urbanism, which is never neutral.’’
