Du jour au lendemain (2006)
Directed by Philippe Le Guay

Comedy

Film Synopsis

Poor François is experiencing the Monday from Hell.  Everything that can go wrong does go wrong.  After being kept awake all night by his neighbours' dog, his coffee machine explodes in his face, his rubbish bag spills its contents all over the floor, and when he finally makes it in to the office after a nightmarish journey via the metro, he is subjected to a round of gratuitous abuse from his boss.  But the next day, everything is different.  Nothing goes wrong.  Even  François' boss seems to be a changed man, apologising to him instead of threatening to sack him.  François is intrigued.  Just what could have happened to make the world so pleasant all of a sudden?
