Vincent Veillon

Vincent Kucholl and Vincent Veillon are back on stage with "Le Fric", a new show that laughs at money and the economy. Money is always a problem. Whether we have enough, too much, too little or not at all. Even if we find it vulgar, it directs the desires, needs, relationships, the position of each in society. Its possession or not classifies men and women and defines their room for maneuver, the freedom to which they can aspire, the power which they have.

A parody of the movie Fight Club.

A crazy referendum throws Switzerland into a state of emergency. By the acceptance of the initiative “No Bilangue” there should be from now on only one national language: French. Many German-speaking Swiss are therefore having a crisis.

Every morning on Couleur 3, Vincent Kucholl and Vincent Veillon parody the news using swiss stereotypes. On stage we meet again with those stereotypes: Sébastien Jacquet the junkie from la Riponne, Gilles Surchat recently fired from Schaffter Pives SA, Stève Berclas singer of BlackLion Genocide from Valais and lieutenant-colonel of the swiss army Karl-Heinz Inäbnit.

Vincent Veillon and Vincent Kucholl with their team have given themselves the means to laugh at all that our country has institutions. Paleo has not escaped! A show specially developed for the 40th anniversary of the Festival which is served to you in full on this DVD.

The two cult cops from Valais have to deal with a simple sprayer case while the rest of the department has to solve the discovery of a charred body. At the same time, the Valais, nay, the whole world, is threatened with disaster and even the Pentagon, the US Department of Defense, is involved.

Excelsior, a ski-resort without snow. A missing bride-to-be, a course for men in search of meaning, a couple in crisis, a Carnival monster, marmot hunters and a glacier in peril: the uncertain future of an Alpine community hinges on its ability to face up to its contradictions when everything collapses.

Normally, the Valais cantonal police are concerned with minor details: runaway sheep and a presence at the village festival. Until the day when an inconceivable murder attempt awakens the criminalistic energy of policemen Bax and Pirmin. In the process, the duo not only uncovers local networks, but also tangles with dark forces.
