Gilles Corporation

A sympathetic short that mocks the diametrically different civilizational attitudes of a French farmer in the remote countryside and a Parisian who may excel in computers and mobile phones, but appears as a revelation in the countryside. The farmer's life in a globalized world exposed to competition from agricultural products of the third world is difficult, so the farmer decides he could start crossbreeding those strange creatures from the city with chickens and export the products. It is, of course, a comically sarcastic exaggeration - actually, a filmed anecdote. Overall impression: 90%. (28/11/2010)
