Plot

Pierre is a professional dancer suffering from a serious heart disease and waiting for a transplant which may (or may not) save his life. In the meantime he reunites with his sister and her lively children. This rediscovery of his family and observation of the teeming streets outside his window give Pierre hope and a new sense of how he might spend the time still left to him. A cinematic love letter to the city of l'amour and a bittersweet ensemble piece threaded with beguiling, melancholic humour.
