    Georges is delighted to spend a small fortune on a vintage, Made-in-Italy, 100% deerskin jacket. He quickly becomes obsessed with the ‘killer style’ it projects and decides all other jackets must be destroyed. His intimate conversations with the deerskin only fuel his rage and paranoia.

    The Opening Film of Cannes’ Directors' Fortnight section, Deerskin is an offbeat and unexpected dark comedy from unique filmmaker Quentin Dupieux. His take on cracked masculinity benefits from an inspired performance from Jean Dujardin (The Artist).

    Filmography: Reality (2014), Wrong Cops (2013), Wrong (2012), Rubber (2010).
