Fool Moon

About This Movie

Fool Moon is an intriguing blend of comedy and the absurd, set against the backdrop of a remote Breton house where a group of ex-Sciences-Po friends gather. The premise seems light—no politics allowed—but the pressure builds as the full moon rises. You can feel the tension, almost as if the surroundings become a character themselves. The pacing is a bit erratic, swinging between humorous banter and moments of genuine reflection, which gives it an almost dreamlike quality. What stands out is the eclectic ensemble cast, each bringing their own quirks and charm. Their performances make the ridiculous scenarios more relatable than you'd expect. The atmosphere straddles the line between light-hearted and eerily unsettling, thanks to some clever practical effects and the oddity of their neighbors. It's distinctive for its ability to weave comedy into existential musings, all under the influence of a meddling full moon.
