Top 100 Most Anticipated Foreign Films of 2022: #32. Quentin Dupieux’s Incroyable mais vrai

Date:

Incroyable mais vrai

A project that has slightly moved up our depth chart, Quentin Dupieux’s ninth feature film was more than ready to go for 2021 – but Incroyable mais vrai stayed on the sidelines perhaps while the filmmaker was putting the first touches on his 10th feature (#36 on our countdown). Completed in September of 2020, it was announced today that the film’s French distributor will release the film in June – so Cannes is a strong possibility. This stars Alain Chabat, Léa Drucker, Benoît Magimel and Anaïs Demoustier.

Gist: Alain and Marie moved to the suburb house of their dreams. But the real estate agent warned them : what is in the basement may well change their lives forever.

Release Date/Prediction: With a June 15th domestic release date for the film – this is headed to Cannes with a bullet.
