  • Inhuman Resources 🇫🇷 France

    Inhuman Resources (Dérapages) · France (2020)

    Most people remember Eric Cantona for his genius on the football field, but in this series, he proves he is far more than just a famous athlete. He carries the weight of a man who has been broken by the economic system.

    Cantona plays Alain Delambre, a 57-year-old who has been unemployed for six years and is trapped in a cycle of professional humiliation. When a major company finally calls him for a mysterious and high-stakes recruitment process, he sees it as his last chance to reclaim his life.

    The story quickly turns into a dark thriller that explores a difficult moral debate: how far can a person be pushed before they decide to fight back against a system that treats them as disposable?

    It is a sharp, French critique of modern work, led by a Cantona who is genuinely intimidating and deeply human at the same time.
