Le voleur de casseroles

Synopsis

On the planet Ednomalie, people are born with white cooking pots attached to their bodies. To stay alive, they must constantly rub them! Everything was fine until one night, Salokin was born without a cooking pot.

This film is inspired by the Lebanese saying “Rubbing/Whitening a cooking pot,” which describes people who go out of their way to impress others just to receive a compliment in return.
