In Franck Dubosc’s dark crime comedy, married couple Cathy (Laure Calamy) and Michel (Frank Dubosc) lead a quiet life in the picturesque Jura mountains.

When a bear bursts out in front of Michel’s car, accidentally killing two criminals and revealing illicit money in the process, their life takes an unpredictable turn, especially when they decide to cover up the incident and keep the money.

But their stumbling plans leads to an unexplained trail of confusion. More used to being honest than crooked, Michel and Cathy’s clumsy cover-up efforts soon start attracting attention.

With over one million admissions, How to Make a Killing is the third highest grossing French film of 2025 to date. Don’t miss Laure Calamy at her best in this winning combination of dramatic suspense and unfolding comic disaster.
