[2] Alain Getty is a Home Automation Engineer who accepts a job in the south of France to work on a small camera drone in a technology company owned by Richard Pollock, and moves to a suburb of Toulouse with his wife Bénédicte.

They arrive late and create a scene with their marital problems; Alice is very rude to Bénédicte.

Bénédicte feels an urge to spend the night in the guestroom where Alice committed suicide.

Alain wakes up in a hospital; he crashed after falling asleep at the wheel, and the previous night's events were apparently a dream.

Alain hitches a ride home and discovers that Bénédicte started an affair with Richard while he was in hospital and is about to move into his house.

That evening, "Alice-Bénédicte" visits Alain to offer him a deal: If he kills Richard, he would get Bénédicte back.

The next day, the couple are in their garden when they receive news of Richard's apparent suicide by causing a gas explosion in his house.

Bénédicte innocently asks Alain if he believes Richard committed suicide because of Alice's death.

The mystery of its origin is resolved by Alain in a voice over: Their neighbours' son had brought the animal from a family holiday to Finland; his upset father then flushed it down the toilet.

The site's consensus reads, "A creepy psychological thriller, with superb performances and natural tension flowing from every frame, Lemming is a worthy successor to Dominik Moll's With A Friend Like Harry".
