Steak (2007)
Directed by Quentin Dupieux
George is the scapegoat of his classmates. One day he cracks and shoots them. His best and only friend Blaise is accused in his place and sentenced to 7 years in a psychiatric hospital. At the day of his release, Blaise realizes he only has one family: his best friend George. But he does not want to hear about his childhood friend, as he tries to integrate with the “Chivers” a gang whose members wear red jackets and boots, drink milk, drive sport trucks and play an incomprehensible and violent game that mixes cricket and mental arithmetic.

What critics compared Steak to
Dupieux followed that debut outing with something called "Steak" in 2007 and then "Rubber" in 2010.
He has made two other features, Nonfilm (2002) and Steak (2007), neither of which have ever been on my radar.
Writer-director Quentin Dupieux (Steak) plays the absurd material with a strong whiff of Napoleon Dynamite: stupefied spectators with binoculars, dumb deputies, a sullen young woman (Roxane Mesquida), bloody meat chunks, etc.
