We Can Be Heroes movie storyline. Louis is a lawyer in a large firm. Everyone finds him “nice”, which rather arouses contempt among his colleagues. However, his life changes completely the day his doctor tells him that he has cancer: his parents reconcile, his colleagues become considerate towards him… except that the diagnosis was wrong: he is in perfect health. He then hesitates to tell everyone the truth, for fear that things will go back to the way they were before.

Brief Review for We Can Be Heroes
A comedy which, beyond its playful and somewhat caustic tone at first glance, casually addresses deeper social and societal subjects. Illness, the world of work, its management, oppression and manipulation of the weak (or too kind) by the strong. A chronicle featuring colorful characters, sympathetic or detestable, it depends. Excellent casting.
Clémence Poésy in the role of a chilling elite businesswoman. Any comparison with situations encountered in the world of work would not be a coincidence. That’s a bit of what makes the audience laugh. But it’s a yellow laugh. Like a fable, it will end with a moral lesson. On the verge of a militant film, but it is indeed a comedy. But how similar it is to the challenges and struggles of everyday life!
