A hectic wedding party held in an 17th century French palace comes together with the help of the behind-the-scenes staff.
“a delightful comedy about a long-suffering caterer hoping to get through one last, mishap-heavy dinner party…An Altmanesque ensemble work brimming with offbeat, lovable characters, and hilarious set pieces, C’est la vie! is a fiendishly smart, sprawling comedy as only the French do it. You will be laughing all the way down the aisle.” (TIFF)
4.5 / 5 Stars! “By the end, you’re left with nothing to do but laugh and raise a glass to their talents.” (Eye For Film)
Max is a battle-weary veteran of the wedding-planning racket. His latest — and last — gig is a hell of a fête, involving stuffy period costumes for the caterers, a vain, hyper- sensitive singer who thinks he's a Gallic James Brown, and a morose, micromanaging groom determined to make Max's night as miserable as possible. But what makes the affair too bitter to endure is that Max's colleague and ostensible girlfriend, Joisette, seems to have written him off, coolly going about her professional duties while openly flirting with a much younger server. It's going to be a very long night… especially once the groom's aerial serenade gets underway.
