Binaud would like to tell the story of his love for Claude, the slowest cashier in the world, but he is questioned by the police.
A refreshing twist is that all the kids’ powers are…kind of useless. There’s a kid who can only move in slow motion, a kid who has every power in the world but can only use them randomly, and our main character Missy who has no powers at all.

This thrilling film about feminine rage and male hostility is an incredible depiction of the fragility of the male ego.
