Paris 36
Determined to silence a cabaret troupe that has radical political affiliations, landlord Galapiat (Bernard-Pierre Donnadieu) evicts a Paris nightclub, the Chansonia, from his building and shutters its doors. Desperate to return to work, penniless stage manager Pigoil (Gérard Jugnot) discovers Douce (Nora Arnezeder), a young woman whose enchanting voice steels him in his determination to put on a new production -- a musical spectacular the likes of which Paris has never seen.
