The film follows Jacques, who goes to his friend Bruno to tell him some shocking news: all of humanity is living in a simulation. From this starting situation, Vertigo is registered in a register of comédie d’animation around doubt, reality and the gap between an immense revelation and a conversation between loved ones.

With this project, Quentin Dupieux approaches the animated feature film after a series of live-action films marked by short stories, absurd devices and characters confronted with fixed ideas. The Cannes selection also places Vertigo in a particular context: the 2026 Filmmakers’ Fortnight selected the film as the closing work of its 58th edition.

The vocal casting brings together Alain Chabat in the role of Jacky, Jonathan Cohen in that of Bruno Moulin, Anaïs Demoustier in the roles of Fabienne and Claude, as well as Jean-Marie Winling in that of Christophe Bourgeois. The tight format, 67 minutes, corresponds to a short proposal for a theatrical release.
