the title of the movie (if you cant tell) translates to the visitors

the movie is a dark and moving comedy. The premise of the movie is that modern day 1990s is visited by a knight and his assistant. they milked the preise for the most funniest  most hilarious parts and they mostly did an amazing job thats why it is a funny comedy film like the movie delicatessen you'll love this if you like shallow plots and dark humor , it is also a good movie and an even better thing to help with learning french One of my favorite parts was at the very beginning where the assistant sees a post truck and calls his master so that they can destroy it calling the devils chariot. making use of a well milked premise. like the car they ruin everything modern  around them. including many many random objects like torches that are actually wall lamps, a barbecue in  progress and an entire room in their once old castle now a vintage hotel. As depicted in the film the knight and their assistant find there ancestors and the noble knight finds his great great great great great great etc. etc. grand daughter who he thinks is his soon to be wife, this makes very awkward moments making the viewer laugh their heads off.  The knight then tries to get back to his own time by finding a ancestor of the wizard  who accidentally sent them to the future where they are instantly have no idea how modern technology works again pushing some hilarious moments. these two people don't know what a sink is or what a toilet is !!!  the main character at the end (not really spoilers) gets all the modern swear words and starts to use them as is catchphrase... his original catchphrase was all about justice and peace but after the adventure its just a compilation of modern day sayings followed by cusses and at the end probably the most repeated line of all... OKAAAYYY. as you can see the movie isn't very deep, made purely for laughs the people who made this knew that their movie wasn't going to be serious at all so  they tried to milk out as many funny moments as possible making this french comedy a must see for french students with a sense of humor
