A FILM BY PHILIPPE
DE CHAUVERON (SERIAL (BAD) WEDDINGS)
CAST: CHRISTIAN CLAVIER (SERIAL (BAD) WEDDINGS)
Married to a rich heiress, Jean Etienne Fougerole (Christian Clavier) is a brilliant and well-known, left-wing intellectual. His last books
bombed so he needs “You’re welcome !”, his new book - about offering shelter to those in need – to be a success. Invited on a TV talkshow,
Fougerole is confronted by a pugnacious journalist. The discussion grows heated as they debate the proper response to the Rroms issue.
The journalist dares Fougerole to welcome Rroms to his own house rather than encouraging other to do so. Cornered, and eager to prove
that he is a man of his world, Fougerole shares his address. The journalist is stunned. Fougerole savors his victory. A Rrom father, Babik,
and his family of nine have been watching the show with great interest. The very next morning Fougerole discovers them on his doorstep
ready to move in. For the left-wing writer, his yuppie wife and their idealistic son a complicated and strange cohabitation is just beginning.
It will unnerve them and test every conviction they have ever had…
