Do you recognize him? Ahmed Sylla cross-dresses for “L’infiltrée”, his new comedy which he is directing for the first time. Discover the trailer for this film selected out of competition at the 2026 Alpe d’Huez Festival.
Ahmed Sylla had been a little more discreet in the cinema this year, after having appeared in three comedies in 2024 (Comme un prince, Ici et y-bas and Super Papa). Here he is back with a comedy that should get people talking: The Infiltrator!
As a nod to his famous imitation of TV host Karine Lemarchand, Ahmed Sylla will put on a wig again and cross-dress for his new role as a woman for an undercover character!
At the beginning of the film, Ahmed Sylla plays a clumsy police officer. When he is entrusted with an ultra-sensitive infiltration mission, he does not expect to have to transform into a woman to approach a terrible gang of warriors led by the formidable “Uncle”. Maxime dreamed of becoming an undercover agent… Lupita will make his dream come true!
Discover the trailer for this comedy, selected out of competition at the 2026 Alpe d’Huez Festival. The film will be shown throughout France on February 11, 2026.
