Overview

Five feminist activists from Marseille, each enduring unique forms of male domination in work and home life, unite over their shared frustrations. Their anger peaks after watching renowned writer Toussaint's overt machismo and commercial pandering during a televised book launch. In a bold move against his phallocratic image, they kidnap him, expecting to expose his true nature. However, as events unfold, Toussaint gradually reveals a sensitive, conflicted side that challenges his public persona. Humor and satire drive this escapade, critiquing traditional gender roles and societal expectations.
