Torpedo est un film franco-belge réalisé par Matthieu Donck, sorti en 2012.
Synopsis
Michel Ressac a gagné un dîner avec Eddy Merckx dans le cadre d'une campagne de marketing d'un vendeur de canapés et espère en faire profiter son père, grand fan du champion cycliste. Mais pour décrocher effectivement son prix, il doit impérativement se présenter en famille au magasin. Michel, très isolé, tente le coup en se faisant accompagner du fils adoptif de ses voisins et de son ancienne petite amie. Mais il arrive trop tard et le prix lui échappe... Il décide alors de rejoindre, en « famille », le magasin de Brest pour réclamer son prix. Il s'ensuit une sorte de road movie initiatique, drôle et touchant sur le thème de la famille, composée, décomposée et recomposée.Actors

C'est enfin le week-end, un week-end de printemps sur le littoral atlantique. Ce week-end-là, deux retraités se rendent dans leur résidence secondaire, une maisonnette aussi vaste qu’un timbre poste, et croisent un couple de punks ayant pour gîte une maison dessinée sur le sable d’une plage. Plus loin, deux imposteurs vêtus d’orange et de vert se mettent au golf non loin d’une procession funéraire. Au même moment, un représentant en parapluies a rendez-vous avec une maîtresse sado-maso dans un hôtel du bord de mer où séjournent deux couples dont l’existence sera chamboulée par un cerf-volant perdu.

Boxeur raté, Patrick joue les faire-valoir sur les rings du nord de la France, menant une existence de paumé, rythmée par les excès de boisson et les coucheries avec des filles dont il ne se rappelle même plus le nom au petit matin. Nathaniel, quant à lui, est un escroc de bas étage dont les minables arnaques se terminent invariablement par des coups sur la tête. Un soir, les deux hommes font connaissance dans un bar où Patrick est amené à prendre la défense de Nathaniel, menacé par deux de ses victimes revanchardes. Fin saouls, les deux hommes quittent le Nord et prennent la route pour Narbonne-Plage où le cousin de ce dernier tient un camion-pizzeria.

The story takes place involving three different people who all work together in the same supermarket over the 24 hour period leading up to Christmas. Ronna (Sarah Polley) is broke and about to be evicted from her apartment. Despite having worked for 14 hours, she agrees to take her British co-worker Simon's (Desmond Askew) shift. While working, she's approached by two men, Adam (Scott Wolf) and Zack (Jay Mohr), who ask if she can come up with 20 hits of ecstasy, which they were hoping to buy from Simon. Realizing she can make some money from the deal, she goes to Simon's dealer Todd Gaines (Timothy Olyphant). Because she doesn't have enough money, Ronna has to leave her friend and co-worker Claire (Katie Holmes) with Todd until she makes her deal. Once she tries to make the deal, she grows suspicious when Burke (William Fichtner), a person she never met before and who is with Adam and Zack, presses her for the drugs. In a panic, she flushes the drugs down the toilet and manages to get out. Ronna then swaps the pills she flushed with aspirin pills she steals with the help of Mannie (Nathan Bexton), Ronna and Claire's friend (and also co-worker in the supermarket), who had swallowed two of the pills without knowing their strength. Ronna hands off the pills to Todd and she, Claire and Mannie make their way to a rave party. Todd soon realizes that he's been given fake pills and goes after Ronna. Mannie sees Todd coming and Ronna hides Mannie when he starts to become sick. In the parking lot of the party Todd confronts Ronna, but before he can shoot her a car runs her over and dumps her off the side of a small cliff, leaving her fate unknown.
