CULTURAL SEASON – “The Invitation” with Frédéric Chau, Clara Huet and Guy Lecluyse
Daniel simply dreams of a breath of fresh air, far from the daily grind of married life. To escape the routine, he invents an imaginary friend, Charlie, and creates moments "just for him." Until the day his wife asks to meet him… Trapped, Daniel has no choice but to hire a stranger to play the part.
But Charlie isn't who he imagined: lost, unpredictable, and completely at ease in his role, he quickly takes control of the story. What was supposed to be a simple lie becomes a spiral of misunderstandings and manipulations where everything can change at any moment.
Between irresistible laughter and absurd situations, this modern comedy explores pretense, the secrets of the couple and the zones of freedom we invent for ourselves to breathe better.
