Au bistro du coin (2011)
Directed by Charles Nemes

Comedy

Film Synopsis

United by a common cause to help the homeless, several residents in a busy neighbourhood get together to organise a charity show.  They meet up at a corner restaurant to make all of the necessary preparations for what promises to be a lively event.  Good intentions there may be, but there are also bad feelings, and not everyone is driven by purely selfless motives.  Amidst this atmosphere of bonhomie and cooperation there are heated arguments and petty rivalries.  Even when the objective is a noble one, there's still plenty of ill-feeling, and much that can go wrong...
