Le monde n’existe pas

A journalist, convinced that his childhood sweetheart is innocent of the crime of which he is accused, returns to investigate in the town where he grew up and from which he fled. Erwan Le Duc (Under control, No love lost) adapts Fabrice Humbert’s novel, starring Niels Schneider.

Our take

Erwan Le Duc once again shows his sense for the absurd and tragi-comedy, this time with the adaptation of the novel of the same name by Fabrice Humbert. Niels Schneider, surrounded by intriguing and complex characters, undertakes a surreal investigation against a backdrop of the strangely familiar northern slagheaps.
