Baptiste, a talented impersonator, can’t make a living from his art. One day, he is approached by Pierre Chozène, a famous but discreet novelist, constantly disturbed by incessant calls from his publisher, his daughter, his ex-wife… Pierre, who needs peace and quiet to write his most ambitious text, suggests that Baptiste become his “answering machine”, pretending to be him on the phone… Little by little, Baptiste not only imitates the writer, but also develops his own character!

“Le Répondeur is a witty and original comedy exploring the themes of identity and creation. With its intriguing script and talented cast, the film promises an experience as entertaining as it is thoughtful.” – Sortiraparis
