Directed by Frank Cimière, Opération Portugal is a light-hearted comedy starring D'Jal as a bumbling cop on an unlikely undercover mission. Starring Sarah Perles and Pierre Azéma, this film plays on cultural contrasts to offer situations that are as funny as they are moving.
Operation Portugal will be broadcast on Prime Video from January 31, 2025.
Synopsis: Hakim, 35, a friendly neighborhood cop of Moroccan origin, has to infiltrate the Portuguese community for the purposes of an investigation. But can you become Portuguese in three days? Especially when you consider that Hakim is a walking disaster when it comes to intervention. His clumsiness and bad luck turn his many initiatives into cataclysms. The suit is clearly too big for him! Quickly caught between his feelings and his mission, Hakim, who lives alone with his mother, discovers not only a community, but also a family.
Opération Portugal will appeal to fans of popular comedies and stories that combine humor and tenderness. The film plays on cultural clichés and misunderstandings to provide hilarious scenes, while lightly tackling themes such as family, belonging and openness to other cultures.
Audiences who have enjoyed French comedies such as Qu'est-ce qu'on a fait au Bon Dieu? or La Première Étoile will find a similar mix of comic situations and emotional moments here. With its accessible, good-natured tone, Opération Portugal is perfect for family audiences in search of lightness.
With its mix of humor, clumsiness and self-discovery, Opération Portugal is an engaging, fast-paced comedy starring D'Jal. A hilarious immersion in an improbable undercover mission, where we laugh as much as we are moved.
