Description:

In September 2011, author Michel Houellebecq vanished, sparking wild online rumors of abduction by Al-Qaeda or aliens. Some online commentators even welcomed his disappearance. This film reveals the truth: Three physically imposing men abducted the intellectual, removing him from the pressures of fame and renovations, and relocating him to a peaceful countryside filled with dog grooming, bodybuilding, junk cars, and Polish sausages. But who will pay the ransom?
