La petite histoire d'un homme sans histoire

1999 · 24m · Comedy

Watching the film of his life, Edgar makes surprising discoveries.

IMDb

7.9

A man in his mid-40s is killed by a truck just after receiving a prescription against death from his doctor. He then regains consciousness in a video store, and with some further difficulties, receives a film of his life. Although full of factual inaccuracies, it is an enjoyable examination of his birth, youth, marriage, family and death. Unfortunately, his request for a sequel is denied, and as he advances down the corridor to God, technical difficulties are experienced.
