Grande école

Set in a prestigious French higher education institution, the story follows Paul, a student struggling with the expectations of his elite environment. While dating Agnès, Paul develops an attraction to his roommate, Louis-Arnault. This tension leads Agnès to propose a bet to see who can seduce Louis-Arnault first, with Paul's exploration of his sexuality as the stake. Amidst these conflicts, Paul begins a relationship with Mécir, a young worker who introduces him to a life outside the confines of the university's social hierarchy.

The cast features Grégori Baquet as Paul, Jocelyn Quivrin as Louis-Arnault, Alice Taglioni as Agnès, and Salim Kéchiouche as Mécir, with Arthur Jugnot appearing as Choquet.
