Teddy, a metal fan, temps at a massage parlor and suffers, like everyone else, from the intense boredom of his one-horse hometown in La France Profonde. But after being attacked by something in the woods one night, the young man begins to change. The feature debut of the brothers Ludovic and Zoran Boukherma is a character-driven, witty combination of coming-of-(r)age and werewolf motifs nestled in a quirky, loveable satire about provincial life, animated by occasional (and all the more outrageous) bursts of gore.

Ludovic Boukherma, Zoran Boukherma
Boukherma, Ludovic & Zoran are twin brothers and grew up in rural France. Escaping to Paris, they studied at La Cité du Cinéma and L'École de la Cité, both founded by Luc Besson. Teddy, their second feature film, was shown in the Official Selection of the 2020 Cannes Film Festival. They previously explored the werewolf theme in their short The Birth of a Monster, which also starred Christine Gauthier. Noémie Lvovski and Anthony Bajon, meanwhile, were in the cast of their feature debut Willy the First.
