Gros chat (2022) is an intriguing documentary that plays out like a tense radio drama. The setting is simple: a radio studio where Siméon Malec hosts his show, and Marie-Soleil Bellefleur steps in to discuss salmon net regulations. But the real twist is how the environment shifts with the calls coming in—each one more urgent and bizarre than the last, hinting at a lion on the loose. The pacing is almost hypnotic, with a blend of calm discussions and rising tension from the calls, creating an atmosphere that’s both engaging and unsettling. The performances are natural, and you really feel the unease creep in as they try to maintain their composure amid chaos. That mix of everyday life and surreal panic makes this doc stand out.
