Simon (Denis Podalydes), a well-known French
filmmaker, starts shooting his next film. A story about
workers fighting to protect their factory from being
relocated. But nothing goes as planned…
His producer Viviane (Emmanuelle Bercot) wants
to rewrite the ending and is threatening to cut the
budget; his own crew goes on strike; his personal life
is in shambles; and to make things worse, his lead
actor Alain (Jonathan Cohen) is an egocentric jerk.
Joseph (Stefan Crepon), an extra who wants to get
into the Film Industry, agrees to direct the Making Of
and shoot the behind-the-scenes. He takes his role
very seriously and starts following around the crew,
capturing all this mess… What follows is proof that
the Making Of can sometimes be far better than the
film itself !
