Holidays by the Sea
2011 · Movie · 80 min. · France
Finally it’s weekend and everybody is heading to the coast. Two retirees in a snail paced vehicle and a beach-house as large as a stamp cross a couple of punks in love living in a house drawn on the sand. Two impostors play golf next to a funeral procession, an umbrella representative meets his mistress in a hotel and the life of two unhappy couples is turned upside down by a lost kite. Many bizarre and funny encounters happen during holidays by the sea. The film is a tribute to Jacques Tati’s classic ‘Mr. Hulot’s Holiday’.
