Laure sets off across Paris to meet friends for dinner, shortly after, she finds herself stuck in the mother of all traffic jams, and resigning herself to her fate she listens to the car stereo and allows her imagination to wander where it will. Torrential rain compounds the progress of driver and pedestrian alike and along with her fellow motorists Laure offers shelter to a stranger; so setting in place a night of passionate emotional intensity that gives the whole concept of ‘one-night stand' the most positive PR it's had in some time. Vendredi Soir is a strikingly sensual tale from the acclaimed director of Beau Travail.
