About Ecstatic Thing
Robinson and Theresa form a couple in crisis, who are reclused in the countryside with their two children, preparing for the collapse of the thermo-industrial civilization. The lack of desire and future perspectives make their lives impossible until they find a strange mushroom in the forest, whose aphrodisiac properties lead them to reconnect to each other. Unfortunately, soon they cannot live without it.
Directed by Benjamin Nuel, Ecstatic Thing leans on a strong ensemble — Armelle Gerbault, Isabelle Joly, Maxence Tual — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 2023.
