Original subtitles

THE TRUTH IS, THERE IS NO TRUTH!

We turn on a street. Dead end.

-It was a dead end. -I say to Melha, "Let's park."

Let's cut the lights.

Like in gangster movies.

We lost him.

-We lower our seats. Lean back like this. -Complete madness.

We think, "It's over."

We send messages to friends saying, "This may be our last message."

And then, the guy knocks.

No.

-He knocks. -No, not on the back window.

On the wipers. Then he goes to the front.

He goes to the passenger side.

He goes and knocks, and I tell Melha,

"Don't open the window. He's going to kill us."

-We were alone. -He was talking.

She opens it anyway.

Yeah, she opens it anyway.

And he says, "I'm sorry."

"Honestly, I'm sorry, but I love what you do."

"Everything you do."

"I love what you do. I've loved you."

-Kévin, the glitter. -Oh, shit.

-No. -Yes.

Inès Reg!

He thought she was Inès Reg.

That's happened to me maybe five times.

So we were chased by a guy on the highway in Auvergne.

-At night? -He thought she was Inès Reg.

Not to get into a car chase.

He thought I was Inès Reg.

In the car, it was nighttime.

Was the inside light on so he could see you?

-We were... -That's suspicious.

How could he see Melha? He was on the other side.

-He saw the side... -At first, he did this.

The two cars were side by side.

Have you ever been on the highway?

-This was on the highway? -Yes.

I want to believe it. Don't you want to believe it?

Yes, no, but why not?

Sorry, fine, we can...

In broad daylight, you can chase Inès Reg.

At night, with your tow truck.

Then you go, "Knock, knock."

I have a question.

Was he on your right or left?

He's behind me. He puts his high beams on.

Then he passes me in the left lane.

So, he's driving on the left, right?

Driver, passenger seat.

Car. He passes you.

So, he's here. Passenger side.

So, his vision has to go like this.

He has to see through two windows.

At night, at high speed.

He has to catch sight of the Inès Reg lookalike here?

-It was a tow truck. He was elevated. -Okay. What do you think?

I believe it. They're very self-assured. I like it.

Honestly, it's well told but I have a few doubts.

It's very well told. They're obviously friends.

So that's always troubling.

You have to zoom out.

This only happens in films.

You're chased in the dark, then they say, "You lost this."

-End of the round. -End of the round.

Wait, I have a question.

Okay. A question from Anis.

It's no big deal, if you're in a hurry.

Go ahead, Anis.

Melha, you know.

Do you remember, when you moved into a house with your family,

your grandmother wanted to be able to see the building

and stay close to her family and friends?

Why are you talking about my grandma?

-Okay. -It goes to shit.

If there was enough meat

at that Sunday couscous dinner, you could never have chatted

much with Diam's, right?

-You read my whole Wikipedia page? -So, just...

I know many things about you.

You've mentioned that people confuse you with Inès Reg.

If that happened to you, you would have told us.

I've never mentioned being mistaken for Inès Reg.

You're the GOAT!

I'd have loved to play like that the whole game,

but I only did it at the end.

-Because I had the info. -Well played, in any case.

I love you so much.

You're such a piece of shit.

That's what I wanted to avoid. I failed.

I don't know what it was with Anis and this story.

He must have doubts to try to throw Melha off.

A guy chased you down the highway at night to ask you silly questions.

I see.

How high was it compared to you?

It's a vehicle where you get in like this.

Okay, and at your height, compared to you?

You don't remember? Show me with your hand.

Honestly...

Wait.

Yes, when you go up like this.

-So rather high, then. Okay. -Yes.

I don't think Detective Anis has solved the case.

Who would have thought actors would be good liars?

Everyone!

Get your pipes and raincoats...

Stop, you already used that line.

No, but I like it when we go into our studies.

Let's revisit all the stories if you want.

We must have missed something.

To recap, there was

"Confused by Al Pacino,"

"Vacation in Dubai"

and "The Highway Chase."

One story is true, but we must find out which one now.

Good evening, ladies and gents. Welcome to the investigation hall.

-I laughed deliberately. -I know.

I laughed a little. But what is she saying? I love it.

They're having fun with our confusion, huh?

We'll get them someday.

Wait, let's not celebrate too early.

Or maybe never. Maybe they're in the same room as us.

Maybe they are us.

I think the Al Pacino story is true.

Yes.

But I don't believe Melha's joke at all.

"You talkin' to me?" Yeah. She put her friend in a tough position?

You'd never do that. She's an artist.

I don't believe it.

It was tricky.

Did you believe the story? I don't want to mislead you.

But I found it strange how Melha would go

to a masterclass for Academy students.

-She was invited. -The Academy is very elitist.

I find it hard to believe.

Oulaya put her heart and soul into it, for real.

-You can tell she was touched. -She's a very good actress.

You feel that she was touched.

It could be true.

"Vacation in Dubai" is believable.

-Nothing special. -I don't believe the Nabilla thing.

No?

I don't believe her, you know.

-We'll drop it. -Yes.

Melha, extremely false.

-Bad! -Bad as shit.

-Bad. -Zero.

I know you don't believe it, but I'm sure there's some truth to it.

Melha seemed...

Maybe she had me, but she seemed very sincere.

At the start, Oulaya says, "It's all true."

-It's something you say when it's true. -Yes.

I think the chase story was very well told.

It was very believable.

-Yes, it was believable. -That's right.

That's a lie.

There's no story that seems obviously true.

A guy who seems aggressive, then is suddenly very nice?

Definitely weird.

It's this one.

"VACATION IN DUBAI."

We'll do this quickly. I trust us.

Melha and Oulaya, first story.

Vote cast!

The girls were happy, but did they fool everyone?

Or did they underestimate their adversaries?

You went "heehaw." You're confusing.

Come on.

-Let's go up. -Straight away?

They won't see us. We'll spy on them.

Why did you press stop?

Huh? Damn, I pressed the wrong button.

I wanted to fast-forward to Freddy and Anis' stories.

Stop touching everything! Take your hand off that.

Good, we can get back to it.

It was Freddy and Anis' turn.

My God, did they have our heads in knots.

I think they had some too.

-Anis? Freddy? Your turn? -Yes.

Go ahead, guys.

Should we come here? On the staircase?

Yes. Coffee? As you wish.

I'm gonna make myself one, but go ahead.

The strategy is to say...

Bore them to death every time.

I can't tell anecdotes.

-He's not doing it on purpose. -No.

He explains Shutter Island, but in 13 minutes.

Not a bad strategy. Turn Freddy's weakness into a strength.

Okay, let's focus. Which story is true?

Between "An Italian Kidnapping,"

a "Little Murder between Friends,"

a "Bromance on the Dance Floor" and "Shutter Island"?

No, Shutter Island is a movie.

I know, but I was waiting for someone to explain the ending.

So...

When we go on vacation,

we like going to Vosges, to write and everything.

And it's something we do every year.

-Like a ritual? -Yes.

And every year, we say "Vosges," even if we don't go there.

And it's the fanciest Vosges trip we've ever had,

in Italy, near Turin.

And we go with a car that is futuristic, electric, that came out recently.

It's the biggest brand of electric car.

At first, it was like, "Wow!"

One evening, we want to go to a restaurant in a small city nearby.

And when we're there,

we notice that the locals aren't used to seeing cars like this.

Which is normal, it was new.

He's proud.

Not proud, but happy driving it.

And the people couldn't believe their eyes.

Oh, the arrival.

It's like The Ten Commandments.

And in a place where we stopped,

there are two kids freaking out about the car.

They're like, "Oh, the car!"

-That's the accent? -No, no.

I don't know what got ahold of me. I'm sorry.

It won't happen again.

They said, "Magnifico, the car!"

So, in the heat of the moment,

we're like, "Come on, get in, check out the car."

You let kids you don't know in the car?

Exactly.

Émile Louis would do that.

They get in the car, and Freddy says to them,

-"I'll show you..." -What a man is.

It's a bit like that.

I felt very manly in that car.

-There was a bit of that with the driving. -Okay.

So, we pick up speed like maniacs

to entertain them. And what happens?

The opposite.

One of the kids is like, "No, stop!"

"Stop the macchina. Stop, stop!"

He goes berserk.

I'm trying to tell Freddy, "He doesn't like it. Stop the car."

He can't hear me.

I turn, the kid's crying.

You went too fast to hear him.

But it's electric.

No, he's crying quietly.

When Italians are happy, we hear them.

When they cry, they hide it, like birds.

The kid's crying and what do I see?

Flashing lights.

FLASHING LIGHT 2.0

The cops arrive and want the documents.

I have no paperwork.

I know what's going to happen. He says, "No papers, no license."

The registration's not in my name.

He says, "Why are you here?"

We say, "We came to eat."

He says, "Who are the kids?"

I say, "I don't know them."

He's doing it on purpose.

Yeah, I know that.

Lots of pressure in the car.

But there's a guy who speaks French and loves the car.

He starts to ask us where we're from.

We tell him everything. I'm hoping to get out of this.

-So? -What's the final twist?

He likes the car.

And he says, "How does it sound when you accelerate?"

The kid didn't want me to but I showed him.

I'm gonna get some exercise.

I tell him, "Get in if you want."

"Get in the car and I'll do it."

He said, "No, I'm fine."

Finally, he gets in, and we rev it a bit.

We've been together for eight years now.

A beautiful love story.

With an Italian.

We ate with him yesterday. He made us an amazing meal.

That's not true.

Sorry, that's not true.

For real, he likes the car.

I have no questions.

He says, "I'm very happy you're here."

He says, "Sorry, I can understand why you like revving the engine."

And he lets us go.

And I say to Anis, "That was close."

And I hate the child.

So, the little Italian...

-Is this broadcast in Italy? -Yes, is it.

Yeah, not bad.

Oh, holy cow!

I like Freddy and Anis.

But keep it together, guys.

You took a little part of my childhood.

Not all of it, but a little part.

-How much? A few months. -Six years.

Keep in mind, he's not doing it deliberately.

It's his style of telling stories.

Yeah, yeah.

He came to troll, not to play seriously.

Is this your technique?

He'll do this with all the stories.

I just wanted to know.

Do you have any proof?

Yes, we have proof.

Show us your proof.

I'll be honest, the proof is rather weak.

And the story isn't?

Where's the proof?

I think so.

Anis.

That's a poor piece of proof.

Obviously, they hang out together. They're very good friends.

So, a photo in a car...

That proof is a blow to their credibility.

That's not proof. What is it?

That's proof of what?

It's all we had. It's in the car.

-Shitty proof. -Honestly. Shitty proof.

-SP. -Yes, yes.

-SP. -SP.

The choice of proof is important.

Why did you choose that?

We didn't have anything else.

But you can say it nicely.

You don't have to yell at me.

It might be true. That's the problem.

It was possible.

It throws you off because there's a lot to it,

with all the details. And it's very funny.

-They're very funny. -They're very comical.

But that's the game. Constantly throwing people off.

Freddy's good at that.

I don't want to hear your stories anymore.

He'll keep doing it.

-It's annoying. -He doesn't do it on purpose.

He thinks he's being quick.

Freddy showed his ability to summarize his stories,

to be concise.

In three words, it was done.

-We threw them off. -Maybe three or four words.

Freddy, the man who gets lost in his stories.

Freddy, the man who even gets lost between stories.

Which is it, Anis?

I don't remember. There are a lot.

It's the thing of...

It's the true one.

It's the camera one.

Oh, yeah. That's right.

The camera story! This is when Anis tells us a crazy story.

In the heat of the moment, I hear Aurel... like that.

I turn around and Aurel's on the ground.

And he's dead.

Yeah.

Too fast. Back to the start.

People will think we're in a true crime show.

We'll lose everyone.

-Shall I start? -Yes.

Anis and I go to Vosges every year.

With our friend Aurélien. Who you love.

-Of course. -He's great.

We spend a week together. We've yet to do it this year.

We rent a place on a website everyone knows,

where there are reviews, et cetera.

One year, as "influencers," we were offered free accommodation.

We go. The guy seems cool.

We go there, he's cool and most importantly,

after that, we don't see him again the entire rest of our stay.

-That's cool. -We like that.

Nothing like, "Come eat, I made some stew."

He doesn't give a fuck.

Sorry.

We go, we're there.

It's great, lovely. The decor's a little weird.

I've developed a habit lately.

I think you do too, when you rent things.

We check for cameras.

Bingo!

Oh, no. That's too much, man.

But that's normal.

But it's too much.

If I see an oddity, I block it with something.

But I don't want to be too meticulous. I don't want to be crazy.

I don't tell the guys.

Because they'd say, "You're paranoid."

I'm not paranoid.

It happens often.

He's remarkable. A real nut.

A real nut.

I put an object in front of a clock radio in the lounge.

I put an object in front of a radio in the lounge.

Two days later, we do some fun things,

the object is no longer in front of the radio.

Not so funny. It was only moved a few inches.

I approach the clock radio. I rotate it.

And I swear to you, on the old beat-up alarm clock,

there's a little lens and I say, "No."

"Are you crazy or do you really see a little camera lens?"

I wasn't crazy. I checked.

I start to get chills. I say, "It's in my head."

I check, I turn it around, and what's there?

A little USB outlet. Not a modern USB-C.

A mini USB.

Nothing much. Small.

I say, "That makes sense on an old alarm clock."

I open it. There's an SD card inside.

Stop!

I wish it wasn't true.

I don't want it to be true. We wish it wasn't.

In telling this story, I'm getting goose bumps.

Show them to us.

Let's see those goosebumps.

It'll prick your hands.

Careful, you can't fake that.

But the goose bumps are already gone.

HAIR THAT WANTS TO RUN AWAY

-It's the stress of the cameras. -I'm very emotional.

-Okay. They're real goose bumps. -I really do.

So, I say to the guys, "Did you do this?"

And I can tell it wasn't them.

Shady. I'm thinking, "This can't be."

Aurel and Anis think I'm tricking them.

And that I, in turn,

-am doing this. -The biter is bit.

-You'll see in the end. -This is not the end?

This is the end, don't mess around.

-It's not the end. -Tell us the ending.

You got on their nerves.

At worst, it helped the story.

I say, "We should do this every round."

"It's weird how we suddenly do better."

Fast-forward. I tell the guys, "Was it you?" It wasn't.

We put on the SD card. What do we see?

We are the ones being filmed on it.

Anis, I'll let you tell the rest, but I was absolutely furious.

We start to get angry. He says, "I want revenge."

We start arguing and everything.

And he starts pushing things around.

Like, I'm gonna drop this plate.

And he starts breaking things.

It's not great for the guy.

We're arguing, we're breaking things.

In the heat of the moment, I hear Aurel... like that.

I come back and see Aurel on the floor.

And he's dead.

-Yes. -What?

That, wait!

That's what the owner thought.

Because, we decided,

"We just have to make a silly short film where we mess with him and break things."

So we were eager to do stupid things.

We said to ourselves, "We'll run off and leave it for him."

-With the body of the guy? -Yes.

He'll see it's fake.

It's a way to get revenge.

And to those who have won awards,

I think we made quite the short film.

-Wait, the guy on the ground. -Yes?

Where is he?

-He's alive. It's a joke. -Yes, okay, but...

He went on vacation with us.

Okay, you left the house?

Yes, we took off at night.

Okay, that works.

Let's hear it for the anecdote.

Let's applaud.

You know, I realize it's fake.

Bro, who are you kidding?

So, we have Freddy who is paranoid about cameras.

He discovers a camera

and he still believes

he can do little gags while it's driving him crazy.

They did it.

-He didn't really do it with us. -They did it.

So you're breaking plates as a joke.

Yes, but he did it because he was angry.

And we took that energy to create something funny.

I have my doubts, because knowing Freddy, it's very plausible.

He's like that, so it's nice of him to open up.

I also have my doubts.

The only problem is that, knowing you,

Aurélien, you're able to do things like that.

It's very complicated to know if it's true or false.

It's very much the type of thing they could do.

They're clever.

What did the guy say when he saw the film?

He sent me a DM. What did we do with it?

-We deleted it! -Deleted. Blocked.

It's weird to delete it if you've done nothing wrong.

You had been unknowingly filmed.

Honestly, we didn't think about it. We just deleted it.

We broke glasses and plates.

He filmed you. Today, it's punishable by law. He can go to prison.

-We know! -I found that shameful, actually.

We didn't want any trouble.

I think all of Freddy and Anis' stories are true.

No, I think they're all fake.

I think they're all true. It's just their weekends.

And you can't untangle the truth...

I think they came for the fun.

-And the sushi. -Right.

But you didn't confront this guy?

You didn't confront him at any point? Seriously?

I can read people very well.

We release chemicals and whatnot.

Stress and everything, they're hormones.

It's very scientific.

-When you secrete hormones. -He thinks he's Nostradamus.

-You know what I mean? -No.

But it's true!

No, but you can tell.

Physically, you can tell.

So, be careful, guys. Don't mess with me.

You do so at your own peril.

You okay?

Do you play poker?

-I played. -Seriously?

With friends, in bars, shutters down.

I figured you out.

Figured out it's true or figured out it's false?

Or tired out by listening to Freddy, I believe.

Clearly. They've told at least four stories, right?

It's their digressions that give you that impression.

-But there's still one left. -Oh, my!

Do you want to start?

I propose Freddy starts because he's quick.

-No! -I'll try to get to the point.

You're going to upset him.

You tell stories very well.

I'm not concise.

I'll tell you what happens in three seconds.

Anis raised his hand, then...

I'll do it very quickly.

Anis and I were invited...

Oh, no, not that, it started so well.

Yes, but the elevator doesn't favor anyone.

It calls the shots in the game. Sorry, not sorry.

But he's capable of making another digression

to add the clue into his story.

I think he can.

I see the thing coming. I say, "Oh, no!"

Oh, no, maybe not.

A hookah!

What is it?

AN OUTBREAK OF FIRE?

I'm not going up.

-What's the clue? -The smoke.

What is it?

Breathe air!

No need for the machine.

Freddy's already in the process of smoking us out.

-Oh, okay. -It's a smoke machine.

It looks like a coffee machine.

-Do you want a little? -Yes, go ahead.

Does it work?

Go ahead, Anis.

I'm telling you, I'm not relaxed.

It's a bit big.

Should I lose weight?

I'm not talking about...

We have a clue that is tricky for us.

-But we're rather confident. -Oh, yeah? I wasn't.

Anis and I were invited to a birthday party

of someone well-known in the French media.

And it's the first time we took part in a hip event

and we were a little uncomfortable.

We couldn't find our place.

We're just starting out.

We can't find our place. We hook up with two women.

Two women who are very funny and very cute.

Like Oulaya and me?

Too cute for us.

So, Oulaya and me...

-Too cute for us. -For us?

Yes, there you go.

You say yes even to lie.

-Yes. -Did you see your faces?

Yes, that could work.

Why all of a sudden was there a connection?

There was a good vibe.

We were happy they were talking to us.

-It's true that you're ugly. -That's what we were saying.

On a scale of ugliness?

I'm sorry!

The women hook up with us, we're wondering why they're spending time with us.

They're much too beautiful for us.

They tell us, "Come on, we'll finish the night elsewhere."

And we leave. We go to a restaurant.

And Lenny Kravitz is at the table next to us.

What?

He's eating, like anyone.

We see him. He leaves. He's wearing sunglasses.

-He's not telling it well. -But it was really Lenny Kravitz.

We spend the evening with them. We eat at a restaurant. It's delicious.

We pay, "Yes, hello, the check. Who's it for?"

We split the bill.

You cheapskates. You didn't pay for the women.

We think that's it.

The women invite us to a nightclub. We never go the nightclubs.

-Had you ever been to a nightclub? -Well, yes.

I had already been to one, but it sucked.

Anis and I don't drink, and there's a lot of cigarette smoke.

We go into the nightclub.

We follow the ladies inside.

And because we want to be the guys who are a little like them,

we do what they do and we start drinking.

We don't drink, but think it'll loosen us up.

We do everything they do. Drink, dance.

We do it all, but we're drinking too much.

-We're drinking too much. -No way.

In the end, we are very so euphoric

to the point that we start to open up.

Like, "You know you're my brother?"

"I don't tell you enough how much I love you."

That's cute.

We start to relax, and I must admit that I'm a little emotional.

So, a few tears start to come.

-No. -Yes, I swear.

We're like, "You're my brother, my man. You're truly my brother."

"You're beautiful. You're cool." We say things like that.

There's smoke and everything.

And we don't remember much after that.

The next day, the women send us a message to say,

"We felt as though we were imposing."

We thought maybe there was a misunderstanding.

But we say, "Did we give you the impression

that we were too close?" Like, working through things.

That's hilarious.

When we thought about the whole evening

we told ourselves, "But, fuck, what crazy gay energy we had!"

Even though we wanted to be players that evening.

The whole evening, we did things that made them think,

"They're very happy together."

Why Lenny Kravitz? What is he doing there?

-It's true. -He was just there.

True stories are like that. Those details that are magical.

It's possible, then.

And we have proof. And the proof is incredible.

Where's the proof?

THE TRUTH IS, THERE IS NO TRUTH!
