The Weirdness that is 'Severance'
Severance is about breaking down facades and confronting old models that were once frameworks of our lives. The somewhat subtle message to me is it’s never too late to fall in love, no matter your insecurities.
Des gens passent et j'en oublie
Gaspard spends his nights reading the Odyssey. When Polo, who claims to be his cousin, shows up with a backpack full of CVs, Gaspard's life is turned upside down. A few blocks away, Bob yells insults and je t'aime at Josianne's window to get her to open the door. Pierre-Henri Brahim spots him and thinks he's found a friend. Fred wanders the streets with his crazy leg. They all end up at Josianne's house, where they learn that she is to be evicted. On the bangs of society, each of the characters is a world unto himself. Extravagant and endearing, they are the protagonists of a social comedy that tackles the issue of social marginalization with caustic humor and a great deal of tenderness.

I think these messages and the way they are presented in this small-town in Texas are increasingly more important as the internet/ social media becomes more and more critical and judgemental every day.
