Even though it is a small movie, it requited a huge effort on the production team because it was really shot on May the 6th 2012, the day François Hollande won the election. All the people on the street are real, no extras, and the last part of the movie was done based on the real results of the election, unknown when they started filming.
Included in the Cahiers du Cinéma list of the top ten films of 2013.
