Coexister (2017)
7/10
Risky but works well
18 March 2023
This product made in Fabrice Eboué has the qualities of its author. He is not afraid to put humor and absurdity on subjects that might seem too sensitive for some people who might consider that it is not possible to make fun of everything.

The direction of the actors is subtle on gags that are sometimes not very subtle, but that work. The dramatic framework allows the use of humor on difficult subjects or at least not necessarily mainstream. A fake imam, a real priest and a Rabbi in forced retirement must cohabit, coexist, as a marketing product (as were the Village People in their time, on different themes, but it is the same concept). The producer is Fabrice Eboué, helped by Audrey Lamy, perfect here, brings his share of humor and counterpoint to the main comic arc. The script is well written and makes the three stories coexist: the coexistence of our religious, the sentimental plot of Audrey Lamy, and the third being that of the producer Fabrice Eboué himself.

On the coexistence of religious, the scenario is in the predictable and expected regarding the themes addressed, causing humor, but the film is not there.
