News from Planet Mars (original title: Des nouvelles de la planète Mars) is a 2016 French-Belgian comedy film directed by Dominik Moll.[2]
Computer engineer Philippe Mars has always considered himself a prudent, balanced person, a caring husband, father, brother, and a decent employee. However, his calm and measured life suddenly turns into real chaos. Strange things begin to happen to his family: his wife turns into an unbearable witch, his son has become a vegetarian, his daughter dreams of a super career, and his sister sells paintings of her naked parents for crazy money. Added to all this is a crazy colleague from work who moves into Philippe’s apartment due to certain circumstances.
