Philippe Noiret

A penetrating study of a marriage on the rocks, set against the backdrop of a small Mediterranean fishing village. Both a stylized depiction of the complicated relationship between a married couple and a documentary-like look at the daily struggles of the inhabitants of Sète in the South of France.

Based on the novel by Raymond Queneau, this surreal French comedy follows a precocious ten-year-old country girl as she gallivants through Paris during a Métro strike.
