A Self Made Hero

France 1996 | 105 minutes | French | Hebrew subtitles

One evening in November 1944, during the final months of a war he didn't fight, a man decides to become a hero, or at least to seem one. He invents a wonderful life for himself and gains honor, admiration and friendship, but for how long? Jacques Audiard presents a sharp and clever comedy that carries several important statements about truth and fiction and the myths every society creates for itself.
