French comedy starring the filmmakers as a small-town Canadian librarian and a strangely seductive, oddly egotistical vagabond whose paths cross in the City of Lights.
When Fiona's (Fiona Gordon) orderly life is disrupted by a letter of distress from her 88-year-old Aunt Martha (Academy Award-nominee Emmanuelle Riva, Amour) who is living in Paris, Fiona hops on the first plane she can and arrives only to discover that Martha has disappeared. In an avalanche of spectacular disasters, she encounters Dom (Dominique Abel), the affable, but annoying tramp who just won't leave her alone.

The Guardian"Cruel comic mishaps may be this movie's raison d'être, but they are softened at every turn by the gentle humanity of the city's inhabitants, and by the unspoken sense that everything will turn out fine in the end."
