Le Clone
Synopsis
Thomas has every reason to be happy. He has a wife (Victoria, the sexiest dentist on earth), an adorable baby daughter and a good job as a program designer for a big software company. He is presently working on a revolutionary new “anti-shyness” program which obliges him to spend more time at his computer than with his family. But soon Thomas will reap his reward. This very evening, he has just put the final touches to his programming masterpiece, a virtual character named Leo who is an exact replica of his creator, only without any of his defects. Leo is the keystone of the program, which Thomas is due to unveil tomorrow. But Thomas hasn’t reckoned with Leo’s spirit of initiative, and Leo is determined to break out from the computer screen and discover real life..

About
I liked both the main characters: Leo for his total naiveté, his childlike way of discovering the world by goofing around, and Thomas for his shyness and discomfort in life, not knowing how to handle his family situation. There are lots of guys like that around, people so tied up in their work that they don’t have a minute to spare for their families. It’s a very contemporary subject! (Elie Semoun - excerpt from press kit)
