The breakout comedy sensation if the 2009 Cannes International Film Festival, The French Kissers premiered to a raucous audience and critical ovation. It's a rollicking tale of a pair of teens who are far removed from the cool crowd, as they suffer the endless embarrassments and minor triumphs of their first sexual longings.

Leaping beyond its modest origins, the film was the word-of-mouth phenomenon of the French summer. International cult status is next.
