A small, intimate Parisian dinner party amongst close, forty-something friends and family takes hilarious and at times tragic turns as emotions boil over during the course of one boisterous evening, in this witty and remarkable adaption of a well-loved play.
The title comes from a crucial moment when one of the guests, the attractive and wealthy Vincent (Patrick Bruel) announces the proposed name of his as yet unborn son. Shock and bewilderment follow and the reactions of each dinner guest reveals more and more about the lives of each guest and secrets and misunderstandings fill the confines of this small parisian apartment.
This is essentially a play staged for the camera, but the pace and power of the performances more than makes up for the lack of variety in the scenery and backdrops. An impressive and entertaining piece of work.
