About Day of the Comet
In the summer of 1986, Halley's comet ended its race around the Earth, after 76 years of absence. As a meteorite debris disintegrates in the earth's atmosphere, Howard, Ana and Daryl, three residents of the small town of Mont-Vallée, each wish for a better life, believing to see a shooting star ... Three wishes answered literally that will generate the worst disasters in the neighborhood. And it is now armed with their only courage that our three "losers" will have to surpass themselves to repair the damage.
Directed by Hervé Freiburger, Cédric Hachard, Sébastien Milhou, Day of the Comet leans on a strong ensemble — Adrien Marik, Yves Arnault, Pascaline Ferrer — 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 adventure titles of 2014.
