Holidays by the Sea (French: Ni à vendre ni à louer) is a 2011 French comedy film directed by Pascal Rabaté.[1][2] The film is a cinematic rendering of a comic that Rabaté himself wrote. Like in some films of Jacques Tati, the characters use expressions and gestures instead of dialogues to communicate between them.[3]

Plot[edit]

The plot of the film intertwines various unrelated characters and stories of ordinary people on their way to and spending their holidays at a seaside resort.[3]

Accolades[edit]

The film was nominated for the Crystal Globe at the 46th Karlovy Vary International Film Festival and Rabaté won the Best Director Award. It was also nominated for the International Jury Award as Best Feature Film at the São Paulo International Film Festival.[4]
