Humans, after all

A classic story framework, based on making amends and redemption, dealt with here in the world of a group of educators who accompany the mentally handicapped on their summer vacation.The group finds itself unwittingly infiltrated by two escaped bank robbers, which gives them good cover, at least for a while. The film then plays with the intrusion of these supposedly normal people into the group. Of course, this allows the film to develop a story that highlights the humanity or de-humanity of the various characters, both normal and abnormal, by creating little stories between them. Humor, tenderness, stupidity, gratuitous malice, prejudice, good humor, mischief, many things are brought together in different ways, both on the side of the people who supervise and on that of the handicapped. In short, the film speaks of human beings, in its own way, in all their diversity.The fact that the film uses real disabled people, and therefore non-professional actors, is a good thing. Their handicaps and their humanity are well integrated into the drama, and the value of having non-professional actors in a cast is well established (see some of Bruno Dumont's films).

Lighthearted French comedy.

Un P'ti Truc En Plus (or A Little Something Extra for the English title) is a lighthearted French comedy. Most of the actors are disabled or mentally challenged, but they were a joy to watch. Credits to them for making this a funny and easy-to-watch movie. There are enough funny scenes to keep you entertained. It's not to be taken too seriously, the message is clear, everybody can learn something from somebody else, disabled or not. Some people might not find it funny but then again comedy is the most difficult genre to please everybody as we all have a different sense of humour. My wife and I did enjoy it, like many others will.
