Luxembourg is a small country in the heart of Europe.
It’s a multi-cultural society, foreigners representing almost
40% of its population.
It’s famous for its forward-thinking social
policies and – especially – for its financial services.
It used to be known for its steel industry – and it
still boasts one of the most important media groups
in the world.
But it’s certainly not known either for soccer or unemployment.
So this is “Revanche’s” recipe: take Luxembourg’s
unemployed. Put them in business suits.
Encourage them to create an international football
club which begins to win all its matches.
Into this strange mix, throw in a bunch of
international criminals, and a bevy of glamorous
Eastern European dream creatures all looking
for husbands, fame and fortune.
La Revanche, the sequel of the successful « Le Club des Chômeurs » is a delicious
humanist fable, a comedy in which love conquers money.
The film takes place in the Great Region (Saar-Lor-Lux),
where four countries interact closely
(Luxembourg, Germany, France and Belgium); and where at
least eight languages come into play (French,
Luxembourgish, German, English, Portuguese, Italian, Russian, and Albanian).
