Nobody have a fresh story no more. They do but they are making tv shows and not movies. The plot for this French film you posted about has been done a million times already with slight variations.

It's on Netflix. One monthly price for everything. I might watch it. Yes, if you are totally bored with nothing else to do then check it out!

Nobody have a fresh story no more. Interestingly I remember the 7 story lines point of view -- which essentially agrees with your observation. A quick Google: Many academics, most notably author Christopher Booker, believe that there are only seven basic plot structures in all of storytelling – frameworks that are recycled again and again in fiction but populated by different settings, characters, and conflicts.
Those seven plots are:
Overcoming the Monster
Rags to Riches
The Quest
Voyage and Return
Rebirth
Comedy
Tragedy

Tragedy This is pretty spot on. Good characters are a must, and intertwining styles with plot twists, and flipping tropes on their head helps, too. Cramming political agenda down an audience's throat, however...

Look for me on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook or Tic Toc...or anywhere you may frequent, besides SimHq, on the Global Scam Net. Aka, the internet.
I am not there, never have been or ever will be, but the fruitless search may be more gratifying then the "content" you might otherwise be exposed to.

Nothing that will win any Oscars.
These days that could be a compliment.
