A bittersweet comedy of great wit and humanity, starring the ultimate odd couple, the French rockstar, Johnny Halliday and the great character actor, Jean Rochefort. When a stranger steps off the train in a provincial French town, he comes across a retired school teacher.  The hotel is closed for the winter and the stranger accepts the teacher’s offer of a room.  The resulting film is a little gem, beautifully written with terrific performances from both leads and plenty of Gallic charm.  

In French with English subtitles.
