Un Ours dans le Jura plot
Michel and Cathy, a couple exhausted by time and financial problems, don’t really talk to each other anymore. Until one day Michel, trying to avoid a bear on the road, hits a car and kills both occupants. With two dead and two million in used banknotes in the trunk, you automatically feel like talking again. And especially keeping quiet.

Timid timber merchant Michel [Franck Dubosc] literally finds a bear on the road. In his attempt to avoid the animal, he collides with an awkwardly parked car, killing the driver [Anne-Lise Heimburger] and her passenger [Jeremy Senelier]. Michel discovers a bag containing €2 million, takes it with him and calls on his wife Cathy [Laure Calamy] to help cover his tracks. It doesn’t help that police major Roland [Benoît Poelvoorde] is not only leading the investigation, but is also a family friend who drops by later that day to pick up a Christmas tree. The deadpan humour is reminiscent of Hitchcock’s The Trouble With Harry and Dubosc has found brilliant antagonists in Calamy and Poelvoorde. The plot is well constructed and the way Michel and Cathy unintentionally complicate the situation is often hilarious.
