En même temps

En même temps (2022)

On the eve of a vote to greenlight the construction of a leisure centre where a primal forest currently stands, an unashamedly right-wing mayor sets out to trap his ecologist opponent. But both will end up being outwitted by a group of feminist activists who will confront the two men with their own contradictions, once and for all.

Wissenswertes

En même temps is a 2022 French comedy film produced, written, and directed by Benoît Delépine and Gustave Kervern. It is the tenth film directed by the duo together and was considered a commercial failure.

Production

The film's original title was Union nationale ("National Union"), but was considered to be too militaristic. The title was subsequently changed to En même temps ("At the Same Time"), a phrase notably used by French president Emmanuel Macron during his 2017 presidential campaign and his subsequent presidency.

Keveren stated that politicians embody what it means to be human in the modern world, comparing them to circus performers who must juggle plates to prevent them from falling. While he believes this is what people do to avoid catastrophe, a politician who follows this principle is "guaranteed to run straight into a wall".

Deléphine stated that this title is both contemporary, as it could be seen as a criticism of Macronism, and timeless, expressing the difficulty of satisfying everyone and making genuine political choices.

Filming took place over a month in Occitania in 2021, with the aim of releasing the film in time for the 2022 French presential election.
