In a bleak little town in France, an old shop with a glowing reputation thrives unexpectedly. This ancestral shop is renowned for selling suicide products through generations. In such a dark and terrifying place, suicide has become a mundane occurrence for the locals, which is also the reason for the shop's unusual popularity. The shop's owner, Mr. Mishima, is devoid of life, and his wife wears a constant frown. They have long since lost their passion for life and live in a state of constant unease. Years of selling suicide products have brought them to the brink of collapse. Fortunately, their two children still love life, especially their younger son, Alan, who always has a smile on his face. However, Alan's zest for life threatens the family's business, and his father goes to great lengths to make Alan despondent, even pushing him to the edge...This imaginative French animated film is adapted from the bestselling novel by French comic artist Jean Teulé. Directed by Patrice Leconte, known for films like "The Hairdresser's Husband," this marks his first attempt at creating an animated feature. The film not only showcases the unique French black humor but also incorporates a lot of musical elements, expressing profound philosophies of life and death through the mouths of animated characters who sing and dance.
