Super Drunk

Last day before the end of high school. In a dull French town dominated by drinking, Janus and Sam have to bring drinks to enter the end-of-year party. While rummaging through Janus' father's cellar for bottles, they discover a strange machine. Which leads them to navigate an absurd adventure. Director Milheau draws from childhood memories, exploring the allure of unlabeled bottles against the backdrop of the French countryside. The narrative follows Janus and Sam's coming-of-age tale as they discover a hidden distillery in Janus's grandfather's cellar. Played by the delightful Jean Lassalle, a former French presidential candidate, who stars as an old farmer romanticizing the joys of communal drinking with oddly poetic, vulgar dialogues. SUPER DRUNK skillfully transposes American teen movie codes to a rural setting, echoing the dynamics of iconic duos like Don Quixote and Sancho Panza. Starring promising talents Gommé and Poletto, the film promises an entertaining blend of humor and adventure — a fresh take on the universal theme of growing up.
