The film "Merci patron !" (2016) is a documentary that follows Jocelyn and Serge Klur, former workers at a factory that manufactured clothes for Kenzo, as they seek reparation from their previous employer after being fired in favor of foreign labor. Director François Ruffin helps them take on the luxury goods conglomerate LVMH, led by billionaire Bernard Arnault, in an effort to make him pay compensation for "ruining their lives." The documentary explores the issue of outsourcing French jobs to foreign labor and its impact on workers' lives, with Ruffin's style likened to that of American director Michael Moore.
