Simon, a well-known French filmmaker, starts shooting his next film. A story about workers fighting to protect their factory from being relocated. But nothing goes as planned… His producer Viviane wants to rewrite the ending and is threatening to cut the budget; his own crew goes on strike; his personal life is in shambles; and to make things worse, his lead actor Alain is an egocentric jerk. Joseph, an extra who wants to get into the Film Industry, agrees to direct the Making Of and shoot the behind-the-scenes. He takes his role very seriously and starts following around the crew, capturing all this mess… What follows is proof that the Making Of can sometimes be far better than the film itself!

[A] playful and realistic dramedy about a shoot that gets out of control from Day 1. Go to Full Review Wendy Ide Screen International 09/04/2023
An enjoyable watch: a droll social comedy that interrogates the cost and chaos of the creative process. Go to Full Review Carlos Esquives Cinencuentro 09/05/2023
As a consequence of this dialectic between fiction and fact, Kahn makes us notice that the development of a film can't be reduced to artistic debate. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Nicholas Bell IONCINEMA.com 09/05/2023

Somewhere in this stew of basic elements an intoxicating medley still exists, but Making Of is as humdrum as its title. Go to Full Review Hector A. Gonzalez Loud and Clear Reviews 09/04/2023
2.5/5
The “film within a film” aesthetic of Cédric Kahn’s Making Of makes the movie lose momentum and focus after a promising introduction. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
