Family Bash tells the timeless story of the Family – the one we love, cherish, insult and despise. You arrive in the village hall of a small French town out in the sticks in Normandy to celebrate your grandfather’s birthday: he’s 90 years old, still “all there” and is the living memory of your family. Just as the party is shaping up to be fun, you find yourself at the centre of an intergenerational conflict with unforeseeable consequences. You begin to uncover the dark secrets and ulterior motives of the various members of your family. In Family Bash, a seemingly insignificant choice can change the relationships between your family members forever. So explore your surroundings and make choices, talk to your cousins, confront your uncle and find out about that mysterious will – for better or for worse. • Explore some unusual themes in the video game: the family and comedy. • Find out about your grandfather’s last will and testament, uncover some unmentionable secrets and destroy your uncle’s car. • The extraordinary visual style of Geoffroy Monde • An original rap soundtrack Produced by Atomic Raccoon and Kilosaurus, edited and co-produced by ARTE FRANCE, European cultural TV and digital channel.
