Comedy
aka: The 11 Commandments
Film Synopsis
The world is in a bad state, a seriously bad state. Forget
Armageddon and all that tepid four men of the apocalypse rubbish.
This is the real deal. Human beings no longer know how to
laugh. Luckily, God is a resourceful kind of bloke and he
(eventually) comes up with the answer: eleven brand spanking new
commandments to lighten up the human race. And who needs that
stuffy Moses guy when you can call upon the services of Michaël
Youn...?
