Un petit truc en plus directed by Artus is a French comedy about Paulo and his father La Fraise, who are on the run after a jewellery store robbery. They hide out at a summer camp for mentally handicapped adults, posing as a resident and his educator.

The film has been well received, gaining plaudits for its sensitive and humorous approach to inclusion, tackling disability with respect and lightheartedness. Artus brings a sunny energy and characteristic self-mockery, making the film touching and entertaining.

The film has a few clichés but I appreciated its inclusive message and good intentions. It is for sure a box-office success. It’s a light, enjoyable comedy with an important message about accepting differences.
