Johanne Sacreblu

Johanne Sacreblu, a trans woman formerly known as Jonathan Sacreblu, returns home to Villa Croissant, a picturesque French town, after spending some time as a rancher in Mexico. Her family, who runs France’s largest baguette shop and have appointed Johanne as their heir, are enraged at her for transitioning, as they feel that it would not be a good look for her when she takes over the family business, despite her iterating that she does not want it. At the same time, the Sacreblu family’s business rivals, the Ratatouille family, who runs France’s largest croissant shop, are also berating their son Agtugo, a trans man, for being an unfit heir to their business due to being born a woman. Both families decide to put the two in a bread-making competition.

That night, Johanne talks to her friend Emily and Marie Antoinette’s ghost about her lack of enthusiasm for the competition and her discomfort with France’s rampant discrimination. The next day, the first round of the competition, hosted by Ladybug and Cat Noir, takes place, in which Johanne and Agtugo are told to race by foot to the Eiffel Tower (depicted on screen through a similar-looking radio tower in Mexico City). Johanne wins, and Agtugo is scorned by his family for losing. Later that night, a man named Jacques Audiard laments being made of garbage.

Johanne meets with Agtugo at night, and tells him her desire to eliminate the racism and sexism in the country. The two end up falling in love and agree to tie in the next round, which had the goal of wrongfully deporting Muslims, in order to spread their message. They tie during the competition the next day, but various French government leaders refuse to accept the result and demand the two engage in a baguette duel to the death.

The duel takes place in the style of a silent film. After Johanne and Agtugo publicly refuse to engage in the duel, French ambassador Papa Johns arrives with Agtugo’s brother Chofls and Johanne’s family butler Wigles and threatens to kill both of them with French fries. After he stabs Agtugo, Johanne reveals that Papa Johns is being controlled by a rat on his head. Papa Johns admits this, revealing that he uses the rat’s secrets for evil. Wigles then kills Papa Johns, explaining that his willingness to work with him was a result of Stockholm syndrome.

Sometime later, Johanne is interviewed by a reporter about the incident. To conclude the interview, Johanne announces that she has a gift she brought back from Mexico. The gift is a cake, and the film ends with a freeze frame as she is about to slam the cake into the interviewer’s face. In a post-credits scene, Johanne’s mother finishes recounting the story to Johanne and Agtugo’s son and tenderly sings a song about how bad he smells (satirizing “Papa,” a song from Emilia Pérez in which Emilia’s son sings about how his father smelled like spicy food, guacamole, and cigarettes).
