It's Easier for a Camel... (French: Il est plus facile pour un chameau...) is a 2003 French comedy film written, directed by and starring Valeria Bruni Tedeschi. It was entered into the 25th Moscow International Film Festival.[2] It won the Louis Delluc Prize for Best First Film in 2003.
Tedeschi won prizes for Emerging Narrative Filmmaker and Best Actress at the 2003 Tribeca Film Festival.[3]
Film historian Tim Palmer described the film an engaging example of contemporary French pop-art cinema, referring to directors who wittily merge the features of intellectual/arthouse cinema with mass/popular cinema, and put director Tedeschi in the company of filmmakers such as François Ozon, Maîwenn le Besco, Sophie Fillières and Serge Bozon.[4]
