In 1977 France, the Ministry of the Future chooses two “normal,” white, middle-class citizens, Claudine and Jean-Michel, for a national experiment.

Wiki.
Le Couple témoin, released in English as The Model Couple, is a 1977 French and Swiss film by William Klein. It is a satire of consumerism and modernity, and follows the events of a national experiment where a "model couple" representing the typical French pair is subjected to constant surveillance as they undergo experiences both mundane and absurd.
