And so it was here, and I got involved in a story where two famous Parisian high-tech furniture designers -- a husband and a wife -- masterfully present their creations, even if it's a three-legged chair that you can only sit on after pre-training.
Valentine, played by Dani Boone, an intelligent, cultured man from the upper world of Paris, has achieved everything himself, and to dramatize what “zero” he began with, he presents himself as an orphan. And one day, when Valentine was on the verge of a multimillion-dollar contract, his whole real family came to him on the threshold, under the pretext of his grandmother’s birthday. And they are not at all what can be imagined in the highest light, and everything they say and do is an untranslatable play of words.
The two worlds are mutually discouraged by the meeting, but that’s not all. With Valentine there is an accident, after which he loses the memory of all his Paris years, and again turns into a 17-year-old boy who tenderly loves his family and grieves for the lost motorcycle.
Now the main trials fall on the shoulders of Valentine’s wife, whom he himself, of course, does not remember, and even fears this intelligent aunt. For the sake of her beloved, the heroine is ready to do anything - even learn the "village" jargon to find a common language again. Meanwhile, Valentine is embracing the world he created with his own hands, and, laughing and crying, with him, we see how “witty” design decisions can make life difficult.
The film is pleasant to watch visually, not without reason because it is associated with design, but it is even more pleasant to see the whole of Boone’s favorite acting troupe together again. Also here in a bright image you will see Pierre Richard.
What you want to hug your loved ones after this film is guaranteed, and fireworks will provide against the background!
