Imagine if the film director Jean-Pierre Jeunet (Delicatessen, Amelie) took the unusual, more capricious, downright funny bits from all his movies and then kidnapped a 11. If this idea makes you run screaming from the room, probably not the best audience for Mi'kmaq (Micmac larigot tires alias). But for the rest of us, the Micmac - loosely translated as "Shenanigans" - is a delight.

Bazil (Dany Boon) is a young worker in the video store, whose father died when he stepped on a mine hidden. When Bazil shot in the head by a bullet intended for someone else, ends up as a medical miracle ... who has lost his job and his home. Fortunately, he meets a group of abandoned and homeless children to carry out: an inventor of complex mechanisms, but hey, a young woman who can calculate anything in the head (Marie-Julie Baup), a human cannonball ( Dominique Pinon), the cook and the surrogate mother's clan (Yolande Moreau), and a woman so flexible that you can sleep in the fridge (Julie Ferrier). Bazil also discovered the headquarters of the company that created the bullet that wounded him, and the mine that killed his father, and must decide how to deal with these entities and their directors.
