French director Nine Antico turns her camera on the tangle of adult life in Paris with Playlist, a 2021 comedy now streaming on K-Time.
What is Hayedeh Shabeh Eyd about?
The full plot is best discovered by watching, but the shape of the production says plenty on its own. Nine Antico directs a French-language comedy that runs a brisk 84 minutes, a length that keeps the ensemble tight and gives every credited name real screen time. Sara Forestier and Laetitia Dosch lead a cast that also includes Andranic Manet, Inas Chanti, Pierre Lottin, Grégoire Colin, Jackie Berroyer, and Bertrand Belin, a lineup that spans several generations of French screen comedy. The film's critical reception has settled into solid, unspectacular territory — the kind of quiet, word-of-mouth response that comedies without a large marketing push tend to earn, rather than a splashy one.
About the cast
Sara Forestier and Laetitia Dosch share top billing, with Andranic Manet, Inas Chanti, and Pierre Lottin filling out the younger half of the ensemble. Grégoire Colin, Jackie Berroyer, and Bertrand Belin round out the supporting roles, giving the cast list a spread of generations rather than a single starry lead. It is the kind of ensemble French comedy tends to favor over a one-name marquee, letting scenes carry more than any individual performance does.
Context & significance
Playlist arrived in French cinemas in 2021, part of a steady stream of home-grown comedies that keep the country's box office less dependent on imports than most of Europe. France's film industry produces dozens of comedies a year, and titles like this one rarely travel far outside French-speaking markets, which makes a catalogue like K-Time's one of the more practical ways to find them without hunting through festival listings. Its 84-minute runtime is on the shorter side even for the genre, closer to a character study than a plotted comedy of errors.
