Crash Test Aglaé is a 2017 French comedy road film directed and written by Éric Gravel.

Plot

[edit]

Aglaé (India Hair) is a rigidly work-obsessed young crash test technician with obsessive-compulsive disorder whose whole world is her work, apart from her adoration of the game of cricket. But then the French factory where she works is closed because the work can be done cheaper in India. Aglaé and two colleagues – Liette (Julie Depardieu) and Marcelle (Yolande Moreau) – decide to accept the company's not-very-serious offer of relocation, and set out from rural France for India in Marcelle's dreadful old jalopy, a quirky journey that ends up as an unlikely personal voyage.
