A random act of kindness snowballs into vivid proof that "no good deed goes unpunished". Antoine (Auteuil), a restaurant headwaiter, takes a shortcut through a park one night and spots Louis, a despondent, lovelorn stranger, attempting to kill himself. Antoine intervenes - despite Louis' vehement protests - and hustles him home to his flat. It isn't long before Antoine decided to fix all that is wrong in Louis's life. He artfully intercepts a suicide note sent to Louis's grandparents, riotously attempts to land Louis a job at his posh restaurant and boldly attempts to mend the rifts between Louis and his former girlfriend, Blanche. But an unexpected twist of fate upsets Antoine's plans for Louis's 'rehabilitation'. A delightfully farcical comedy heavy with Gallic charm.
