The Sauvage family is desperate to be loved. Carole knows her employees hate her and is determined to win them over at any cost. Jacques has never worked a day in his life and doesn't feel respected. As for their 16-year-old introverted son Blaise, who lacks a personality, he always goes along with everyone and agrees to everything.... So much so that when he meets this girl, Josephine, he politely embarks on a revolutionary, violent, and completely impromptu crusade.

An existing fanbase in France should support the film on its homeground release by The Jokers. But the picture is both strikingly original and extremely funny. Go to Full Review Mike McGranaghan Aisle Seat Aug 2

An excellent animated oddity. Go to Full Review Jared Mobarak Hey, Have You Seen ...? Jul 24
7/10
Beyond [a unique brand of animation that marries a cutout feel with the contoured aesthetic of a MAD Magazine], however, the real draw is the infectiously dry wit of the script. Go to Full Review Nadine Whitney The Curb Jul 23
Blaise is delightful… fabulous and inventive deadpan comedy about being the squarest pegs rendered in a brilliantly odd animation style. Go to Full Review Morris Yang In Review Online Jul 12
As a slice (or many) of social criticism, Blaise mounts a generally unfocused if charmingly non-sequitur campaign against the lengths people go to for validation. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
