Curiosidades

Thalasso is a 2019 French comedy film directed by Guillaume Nicloux, starring the writer Michel Houellebecq and the actor Gérard Depardieu as versions of themselves. It places Houellebecq at a health spa where he goes through a series of treatments while Depardieu keeps him company. The film has been described as a sequel to Nicloux's The Kidnapping of Michel Houellebecq (2014).

Production

Guillaume Nicloux had previously made multiple films where the writer Michel Houellebecq appears as an actor as well as several films featuring Gérard Depardieu. Notably, he made The Kidnapping of Michel Houellebecq (2014), where Houellebecq performs as a version of himself. Although Thalasso has been described as a sequel to The Kidnapping of Michel Houellebecq, Nicloux says it was not conceived as such and is a standalone work.

The scenes were filmed in one take with a multiple-camera setup.
