Film of the week : Cockles and Muscles

This brilliant French film has shown the wonderful and humorous capacity of French cinema. The film whilst originally named Crustacés et coquillages, is subtitled for the English speaking [sorry all those who hate subtitle films]. The Film outlines the bizarre family holiday of Marc and Béatrix. The film highlights preconceptions and challenges the viewer about their own understanding of sexuality within the characters.

Without giving away any of the story, the film is set in Marc's inherited house [from his aunt] on the Côte d'Azur. The story revolves around the family’s summer holiday and the sexual experiences which go along with it. All in all a light hearted flick which should raise a few laughs, however if your not a fan of subtitles perhaps one to avoid. Whilst I'm not sure about the channel show at the end of this trailer if you are UK based you can find this film on BBC iPlayer at the moment, enjoy the trailer.
