Drama

Film Synopsis

In a building lying somewhere between the suburbs and the centre of Paris, seven people meet and get to know one another in the course of a long and anxious night.  All of them are waiting for something to happen.  A pregnant mother is waiting for her child.  Others are waiting for partners to turn up or for some life-changing event.  When the night is over, all seven of them will emerge as different people, their waiting rewarded.
