Bonkers & hilarious in equal measure....
Quentin Dupieux’s chaotic, bizarre film about a monster-fighting squad controlled by a rat named Didier will greatly annoy some, which is one of its strengths
In modern-day France, a team of superheroes called the Tobacco Force do battle with bizarrely rubbery monsters. These warriors of virtue are named after the constituent ingredients of cigarettes: Benzene, Methanol, Nicotine, Mercury and Ammonia. Wearing costumes and helmets, like a cross between the Power Rangers and Daft Punk, they kill these evil beasts by surrounding them and blowing their individual vapours which combine to form fatal cigarette smoke.

The CFI has no membership criteria - just turn up and pay on the night. This is not a profit-making venture. We are aiming simply to cover the cost of the film hire (via Film Distributors FILMBANK, Momentum Pictures or BFI ), the hire of the Audio & Visual equipment (from Chorlton-based company Hollowsphere), the rental of the Church & the cost of the biscuits.
