A Goat Goes to Court in Fun French Comedy ‘This Is The Goat!’ Trailer

“Only an ass would defend a goat!” Pathe in France has revealed an official trailer for a new French comedy called This Is The Goat!, which is the fun English title of the original Les Chèvres (which translates to simply The Goats). Here’s the pitch: Did you know that in 17th-century France, animals could be judged for committing crimes? In 1644, a goat is accused of murder… A failing lawyer in France decides to take on the case of defending young, innocent Josette, wrongfully accused of murder – only to realize later that Josette is actually a goat. Caught in the trap, he can’t back down, being already the one who never saved a single one of his clients, he doesn’t want to become the one who can’t even save a goat! This time, he must win… by whatever means necessary. A film by Fred Cavayé, starring Dany Boon, Jérôme Commandeur, Claire Chust, Alexandre Desrousseaux, Grégory Gadebois, and Marie-Anne Chazel.
