Narco is a French comedy about Gustave Klopp, played by Guillaume Canet, who falls always and everywhere asleep because he is a narcoleptic man. Gustave was eight when his father took him to the doctor and he was diagnosed, he learnt also that day that doctors can do anything for him because there are no medicines to treat Narcolepsy.
The plot is based on his adult life with his difficulties to keep a job because of his illness and his married life with Pamela, Zabou Breitman. Gustave has a best friend Lenny Bar, played by Benoît Poelvoorde, who is a fan of Jean-Claude Van Damme.
I had to watch this film for a psychology lecture and I find it certainly interesting by his way to treat the narcolepsy subject. This film can make you understand what is the daily life of a suffering people and his entourage. It explain you an important and annoying medical problem with humour and I think it is a good thing to laugh to play down something like that.
On my advice it is an unexpected film with an unusual subject really well scripted and played by a few great names of the cinema’s world.
I recommend this film at everybody wants to watch something different and perhaps to learn something. Narco is a good film.
